My personal challenge this year, is to recreate foods of my country, Nigeria. 
As I’m learning, this is a whole sea of opportunity. So when I saw Kerstin of Cake, Batter & Bowl’s dessert gnocchi with chocolate centres,…I was seriously impressed!

Can you guess where I’ve been?
Well, I haven’t gone to Barbados yet…….though I am seriously counting down!
So, I haven’t been on holiday.
I’ll give you some clues
#1 – Twinkle, twinkle, little……
#2 – Very French, very fine dining connotations….and a ’round’ man
#3 – My desire as a gourmand has been to visit one!

….aka Banana bread, with white chocolate chips and pecans!
It took me a while to figure out what to make for this stop of our Culinary Tour 2010, hosted by Joan of Foodalogue.. Eventually, I stumbled upon recipe after recipe for Banana bread…., and then it became very clear and apparent what exactly I had to do. Namely, make some.
See, I have tried it once before, sort of…..
Actually, my friend, S made the bread (she is a BBE: Banana Bread Expert, churning loaf after loaf, of exportable commodity. Yes her BB has travelled from Europe to the States….., though not for me). While she worked hard, I stood by taking loads of photos and learning all her tips and tricks.
