Some unpaid product placement

As I type this, the aroma of banana bread is rising through our home. Is there anything more comforting and homey than that scent? After an intense couple of days at work, I'm happy to just sit here and enjoy.

I've also been enjoying a couple of other treats recently. 


Misto found its way into my stocking over the holidays. I first heard about it from Gina, and I'm already pretty taken with mine and the new, easy way it affords to use olive oil. I've been using my Misto to coat chicken nuggets, dress salads and prepare my baking pans (including the aforementioned banana bread). 

I've also been busy playing with a shiny, new Kindle Touch. Over the holidays, I've been flying through a couple of states as well as a couple of books. The Kindle's e-ink display, touch screen and long battery life make for comfortable reading. I remain unimpressed with the pricing structure and restrictions on how consumers can use their content, but I can't argue with the good reading experience.

Okay, now I'm going to turn my attention back to my baked treat.

  1. I also love my Misto! I'm thinking of experimenting with something other than olive oil - like sesame or something. Are you using olive oil only?

  2. A Misto buddy! I think I'll probably stick with olive oil in the Misto (to encourage me to generally stick with "good fats"), but I love adding sesame oil to things for flavor. I've had truffle oil in restaurants and loved it, but the price in the store makes me wince. Best use of truffle oil that I've experienced so far - on fries! Goodnight! So good. :-)
