Tarev, I had to google turon de banana and see that it includes Jackfruit. There is a jackfruit tree down the street but the fruit is not ripe at this time of year. It sounds like a good combination though.

I can put them out on the street but I'd rather find something to do with as many as possible first. I got on the phone this morning and found several friends who do not have bananas ripening, they will take a few green ones, the lady who cleans for me will take a few. I'm happy I got the freezer cleaned out so as they get overly ripe I can start freezing some. Right now I want as many recipes for fresh banana as I can find, thus the banana creme pie. I have lots of ways to use the frozen ones and there isn't the time pressure. The reason I will have to make sneak deliveries is that most of my friends say 'don't bring me any sweets' as it is bad for their waistline. I made a chocolate chip/walnut/banana bread with the very last bag of frozen bananas last night. It's pretty good, but it is sweet so I may slice it and only leave a few slices along with some green bananas at various houses.

My Key Lime is also producing like crazy, what I'd really like is something that I can make with fresh bananas and lime juice. hmmmm now that I think about it, mangos are starting to come into season along with early pineapples so I could make a big bowl of fruit salad.
A day without sunshine is like, you know, night.
