Well, I'm a guy, definitely alt, a little fat, not too short, and my email name is buddha. Obviously, this newsgroup's name was chosen for that fateful, yet inevitable, day that I would stumble across it, stop lurking in the shadows, and use it as a vehicle to reveal to All the True Nature of the buddha. So, without further delay, Here it is: 1/2 cup butter 1 cup sugar 2 eggs 2 cups flour 2 tbsp baking soda 3 tbsp sour milk 3-5 soft bananas Assorted nuts. Cream butter, sugar in a bowl & add eggs. Sift flour & baking soda into bowl and mix with sour milk. Add banans & nuts. Mix. Bake @ 350 for 1 hour. Well, there you have it. I think the bananas and nuts explain the true buddha nature and the rest of the ingredients kind of explain the "fat" part. Where "short" comes from is anybody's guess
