Banana Bread and Box Tops

Did you see my banana bread recipe post? Just wanted to give you an update - and make you an offer.

I bought flour and baked my banana bread, just a day later. I baked it during suppertime, cooled it, then wrapped it up and put it in the refrigerator for breakfast the next morning. Oh, my was it good! My husband spread a bit of cream cheese on his. Like icing on the cake, that topped it off perfectly and he highly recommends it. We had some again the next morning, too, and it tasted even better. That's the secret to banana bread; let the flavors ripen for a day or two and it gets even tastier.

When I was measuring the flour for the banana bread, I first used the tiny bit that was left in the old bag. As I was flattening the bag to throw it away, I noticed a pretty pink little coupon on the back that said "Box Tops for Education." Oh, good. A Box Top for Kellie. My friend Cheri is collecting Box Tops for Education for her granddaughter Kellie's class. In fact, Cheri has set up a web page asking for your help in collecting the Box Tops and, the best part, Cheri is offering to send you, as a thank-you for your Box Tops, a free scrapbooking item.

Cheri is into scrapbooking big time and has a scrapbooking blog with oodles of great ideas and resources. She also has lots and lots of scrapbooking embellishments. If you would like a free embellishment that you can use for your scrapbook, just visit Scrapbook for Box Tops and read how to go about making the connection with Cheri. Even if you're not into scrapbooking, Kellie would be thrilled to receive your extra Box Tops for Education, so contact Cheri through her website.

Then go bake some banana bread.
