Of all the delicious foods mentioned in Storms of Malhado, one of the things I really wanted to make was banana cream pie. I channeled my inner Edna today, and got to work making this. It has to sit overnight, so I wanted to give it plenty of time. I thought, at some point, that it hadn’t turned out the way I wanted it to, but something magical happens when you add the sliced bananas and let everything sit in the fridge for a few hours. I made an extra portion just for myself. I sat outside, like Betty, to eat it. I think it’s really good.
I also made deviled eggs, a turkey meatloaf, a green bean salad, and tomorrow I plan on buying some very fresh shrimp.
