I was given this banana bread recipe years ago from my friend Heidi H, who, many years before, had begged the recipe
from a ski buddy's mother — Mrs. Hockmeyer.
Forbes makes his home off a golf course five minutes
from his Nanaimo office; he has a
ski chalet up the side of Mount Washington, which this winter had one of the highest snow bases in North America; and one January weekend this year, when parts of Canada were enduring sub-zero temperatures, he had to decide whether to go golfing with his
buddies or
skiing on the mountain.
