for fried cut the bananas in half lengthwise and fry them in a pan with butter, a little sugar, and cinnamon. Then top them with chocolate, caramel, or a caramel type flavored liquor. And they are also great topped with whipped cream and cherries!

Bring in some fresh snow from outside (collect it in a clean container while the snow is falling). Put it in a blender (Partially let it melt) with some yogurt, a 1/4 cup of jam or jelly(strawberry is great), 1/2 tsp. of vanilla, peel and toss in the banana's and create a "Winter smoothie". You may have to add a bit of sugar too-taste it. Close the blinds and pretend it is summer. You could add a bit of rum if you really want a beach party! Maybe cook some Kailua pork too. http://www.recipezaar.com/66658
