When life gives you too many bananas, its only nature that you make banana bread. And if you happen to be really stressed out and freaking over calculus, you add a couple handfuls of chocolate chips into the batter.
Its been a very long time since I’ve taken any math courses. Its been almost a decade since I took (and successfully passed) calculus my junior year in high school. I thought that was the end of my math career, but here I am trying to fulfill pre-med prerequisites at 27.

I loved math as a child. This probably stemmed from my dad being a math genius. From basic arithmetic in elementary school to integral and vector calculus in college, my dad could always help me out with my homework. Just last week I called him up in panic over an equation I deemed impossible. No matter what time of night, he’d willingly accept the challenge and show me how easy the problem was to solve.

Hmmm…it seems like the salt information is missing from the recipe. I just had to wing it. Hopefully, it turns out ok!
