As a true Taurean, I hold on tightly. I believe, I have faith, I hope, I wish — but sometimes I have to let go, as much as it causes immense pain.
If ever anything was past the point of no return, it’s these black bananas. I held on for so long, I saved them because I figured they’d be perfect for banana bread or muffins, but then I became emotionally attached and couldn’t let go, even when they lost all signs of life.

And I still couldn’t dispose of them.
I cleaned out the refrigerator (Lion’s Gate Portal activity) and put them to one side in a sort of transitional area JUST IN CASE, because you never know when the heart will start to beat once again.
This is the way my brain works. Here’s what I wonder: If I peel them, what will I discover? Have they become toxic and inedible? Can they be resurrected or is it too late? What if I toss them out and they were still good?
What do you think?
My suggestion is to use them to fertilize your plants and be able to let go of knowing that they’re serving a good purpose π
I know exactly where you’re coming from – it’s quite funny that you never can say goodbye to them!

Great idea, but we have rats here in SoCal that would love to eat some bananas no matter how old they are and I’m not sure about indoor plants…If you think my banana hoarding is funny, you should see all the empty boxes in the garage!

Haha. Well you should see my bubble wrap and other envelopes that are “sure to come in handy someday” π

Same here! Because you never know when you’ll need five tons of bubble wrap! I totally get it.

Padded envelopes. And I also have a collection of empty boxes that came with appliances and so on π
