This Sh*t is Bananas; Tuesday, Third Period [06/25].

There were no cloches waiting on the counter in front of Summer this week. Was that a good thing? Should you be worried? If you were asking yourself either of those questions, then Summer would feel like her work here was truly done. However, according to the schedule, her work here was definitely not done, as there was still one last class, and so....

"Thank you all," she said, "for going on this weird banana journey with me. By now, I'm hoping you've all had some newfound knowledge and respect for all the weird shit people used to do to bananas...and probably still do to this very day!...and that maybe you've been inspired to do some weird shit to bananas....in the kitchen, this is absolutely not that kind of class...yourself.

"On that note, I would like to divert your attention to this page I've copied out for you from a 1955's cookbook from Michigan. It's going to be difficult, but please ignore the enticing prune recipes on the bottom, because we're going to focus, naturally, on the suggested variations for baked bananas today instead. Because I'd like you all to pick one to make and try and share with the others for yourself.

"You can deviate from the suggestions, of course, especially since some of these are honestly not that bad, and if you've got an idea to really impress us with your What-the-Fuckery, I'd love to see it. So you can play it safe, you can go a little more extreme, or you can make your own unholy baked banana concoction, but the point is to find one that speaks to you and then see how it goes.

"Pretty simple, but honestly? A good way to close out the class, if you ask me. Take a few minutes to look over the suggestions, get inspired, and then we'll get to baking some bananas."

"Well, it's only been three months," Steve said with a little smile. "It can take time to plan a trip. I'm glad you liked Ireland, though! That's where my parents immigrated from."

Steve laughed. "Are you saying your family might've left under less than honest circumstances and picked a new name?" he teased.
