Banana Bread with Cranberries and Chocolate Chips

0 Preheat oven to 350°.
1 With an electric beater, cream together sugar and butter until light and fluffy.  Add bananas and eggs, beating until well-mixed.
2 Sift together dry ingredients three times.  Blend with the bananas mixture but do not over mix. Fold in the vanilla, cranberries, and chocolate chips.
3 Pour into 2 lightly-greased loaf pans.  Bake for 45 minutes to one hour, until firm in the center and the edges begin to separate from pans.  Do not over bake.
4 Cool on a rack for 10 minutes before removing from pans.  These freeze beautifully.
