Banana Bread

On a rainy day, little says comfort like a warm loaf of banana bread fresh from the oven.  The smell fills the house, making even the dreariest day just a little bit brighter.  There is the added bonus of using up overripe bananas before they are unsalvageable.  This moist, delicious treat is made even sweeter by pairing with a nice hot mug of coffee or tea for an instant spirit lifter.

2 cups flour

1 teaspoon baking soda
