Das Boat

We've had two bikers staying with us for the Tour of the Gila bike race which is on the pro tour. These guys had stayed with us a couple of years ago, and so it was nice to have familiar guests.

When we said our goodbyes today I saw some leftover bananas and immediately started planning a dessert - pate brisee boats filled with carmelized bananas in palm sugar with a layer of ganache - sounds good huh?! Well they took the nanas leaving me with an empty boat waiting to be filled (They may be reading this so - its alright, I'll get more bananas). Then in a twist of fate, Tyler came home when dinner was coming out of the oven (bison steak) and said, can we share our dinner with friends. Truthfully, I was reluctant, but we did. So being bananaless, I needed to whip up a fast dessert - leftover lime curd with frozen berries.
