....Didn't someone say 'banana cream pie'??? ooooOOOOO, now now, that's my favorite pie!! Never heard of dipping bananas in lemon juice--I sure can remember my Mom making banana cream pie just for me many times, although, instead of using whipped cream, she would have meringue, consisting of sugar and egg whites and put it back in the oven to just 'brown' the topping....Mmmmm...weren't those the goood o' days?!!!


Refrigerate leftovers??? Yeah right! Nah, I'd eat the WHOLE pie all by myself! *burps*....excuuuse me-- :D

I'd figured that much and sounds like a good thing to do, but on the other hand, if I'm gonna eat it all up right away, there's no need for the lemon juice! :D
