Banana Chips

Image
I had some fairly overripe bananas. The bananas were ok, but the peels were brown and ugly and didn't taste that delicious.  They are  now made into banana chips. Cut the bananas very thin and put them on baking paper. Bake / dry in the oven - hot air 100 degrees for 1½-2 hours. Open the oven a couple of times to let out the damp. Use them as candy, in muesli or as a side dish with chicken in curry. Danish

Good Husband Material - Trisha Ashley

Image
Good Husband Material by  Trisha Ashley . Tish's first love, rock star and painter Fergal, goes to USA, and Tish doesn't hear anything from him. With a broken heart she instead finds what she wants in James. He is a little older, respectable and reliable, and everything Tish thinks she needs after Fergal.  They get married and moves to a little village in the country, but not all is complete bliss, and then Fergal unexpected turns up in the little village. Chick-lit for fans of Katie Fforde and Jill Mansell. Funny and warm novel  - a good summer read, I think I found in the  BookBub's blog , where there are many ideas for reading. It is also possible to get their daily newsletter with favorable deals on e-books, and also some for free. Danish
