Banana Churros with Chocolate Peanut Butter Sauce

One time a few years ago my friend Sarah and I were chatting about our workout routines. I was like, “Sometimes I run!” (vague, much?) and she was like, “I love to go to my spinning class twice a week!”
And then what? Collapse into laughter like kids, while the class instructor  yells at them to keep spinning? Learn the spotting thing that ballerina’s do so they don’t get dizzy pirouetting? Do they take turns, watching each other and competing to see who can spin the fastest? Does this really burn that many calories?? Questions I had to ponder for much too long, because I was too embarrassed to ask her for details.
