Grandma Crabtree’s Banana Cake

It’s 10:15 pm and I just took these banana cupcakes out of the oven.   I used my Grandma Crabtree’s recipe…mmm mmm my favorite!  I love the smell of banana cake baking…it takes me back to when I was just a little girl, the smell reminds me of my Grandmother, she always had something baking.

This is the first time I’ve used her recipe to make cupcakes.  I’m participating in Relay for LIfe this weekend and tomorrow we’re having a bake sale.  I thought it would be fun to make cupcakes instead of cutting apart the cake into individual slices…I can’t wait to put the frosting on…they just need to cool off a little more.  Yum!

I actually get to visit with my Grandparents this weekend (driving from Provo, UT)…they’re coming out here to California for my brother’s wedding.  Yep…a Wedding, Relay for Life, and I have my cousin, her husband and their five kids staying at my house this weekend, they’re flying out from Salt Lake.  I’m not busy at all…really… :-)

I hope you all have a wonderful day.  Don’t forget to enter to win my T. Collins Mini Album (click HERE for deatils).  You may comment on any post you chose and I will enter your name in the drawing!
