This was prety much a dismal failure, but I don't think it was because of
the recipe. They do desrve another try, so I am posting them here. I had
never made pancakes before, so there was a little problem with that, and
the bananas appeared to be *too* ripe (they were orange-ish and hard
instead of mushy...).
