Are the Hives Alive?

Don checks for activity in the hives, then gets a second opinion from Pat.  The prognosis is good!

Banana Honey Tea Loaf

This recipe comes from the 1976 American Honey Queen http://www.abfnet.org/?12, Tammy Jo Inman .  That's got to be way better than being Miss America don't you think?  Anyway, you have to trust a banana bread recipe made with honey coming from such a credible source as a Honey Queen.  I tried it, and it was so good, that is rose to the top of my list of all other 20 recipes I have in my recipe box for banana bread, and even the recipe marked in The Joy of Cooking.  Here it is if you want to try it.
