Pride in the morning---instead of the usual Blueberry Boy Bait, I brought the banana cake with penuche frosting (made as a sheet cake instead of layered) from Food52. It took a while to get cut into, but then mostly disappeared. I must remember to bring something savory next year, since there is always an abundance of baked goods.
Dinner at Jennie and David's: more bread (sans bacon, of course) plus a banana/coconut /rum custard caramel pie from a cookbook I brought home (Art of the Pie). The flavors were excellent (especially the rum caramel, which is going to be my new standard recipe), but the pastry cream did not firm up enough and the whole thing was more like a messy pudding with crust below. That didn't deter us brave souls, though.
