Household hints: Keep track of stray bananas.

Today's household hint is brought to you by this poor dead banana I found trapped behind the bowl where I keep the fresh bananas on my kitchen counter. Who knows how long it had been there...

Actually, I should call it a petrified banana. Because it was HARD. AS. A. ROCK. (Good thing it hadn't gotten all slimy and/or smelly. Yuck!)

The moral of the story of this: black bananas are good for banana bread....unless they become petrified black bananas. Then they only make you realize your house cleaning skills were a little lacking.
