Award winning Banana nut bread!!!

So I just got into my very first baking competition and as excited as I was I didnt have real high hopes since I was going up some other great bakers themselves who have been doing this as long as I've been alive!

Beside the fact that I was the rookie for this competition I ended up bring home 1st Prize!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Theme: Banana Nut Bread

Rules: Must have bananas in it as little or as much as you want
and it must have some type of nuts in it 

And here was my entry........................................................................



As you see I didnt do as much of a classic Banana nut bread 
for first off I used pecans instead of walnuts
and then I added a caramel glaze

Felt Frenzy

So I have a confession I have been cheating on baking and cooking with crafting lately and I would say Ive had a bit of a felt frenzy. If you have ever seen felt food Im absoloutly in love with it!!!! Now I know actually zip about sewing and stitches and embroidering and all but I plan to learn more as I go.
I know as of right now my skills lack major but heres my first 2 items I have made with felt.......

This is my first felt food its an Apple pie stuffed toy!!!!

Below is something I worked on for my Iphone its a cover/pouch I have so many more 
Ideas and themes that I want to run with on more Iphone pouches.

On the front is an Octopus I named Milton and on the back I stitched some bubbles.
