Whew! It’s been too long since I sat down with you, my fellow hungry people and cheerful internet friends. I need a break from the upset, angry, rude, confusing, silly, and sometimes downright hateful comments filling too many abortion “discussion” feeds. Sometimes it’s not even worth engaging, is it? Sometimes you just a cup of […]
#BeEggsquisite: Gingerbread Sweet Potato Muffins
This holiday season, I have a total obsession with gingerbread. I can’t stop. Won’t stop. I’m craving gingerbread like nobody’s business, making gingerbread treats, and watching them disappear to mere crumbs at the corners of my mouth before anyone else in the family has time to realize I baked something. Taking this compulsive consumption into account, gingerbread […]
Bran Muffins
How boring am I today, here to expound the virtues of good ol’ bran muffins. Besides making these boring-in-a-good-way muffins, other tasks done this week included colour coordinating my closet – too much excitement, right? Although seriously, a colour-coordinated closet with only clothes I actually wear and everything else thrown out or donated and every hanger […]
Zucchini Muffins
You can find zucchini in just about everything right now, from cookies and cakes to lasagnas and salads. While I applaud the use of zucchini in just about everything, the most important recipes are still the classics. I don’t care how good a spiralized pickled dehydrated quinoa zucchini salad you can make and call it […]
Strawberry Chocolate Muffins
When I think of Valentine’s Day, the first thing that comes to my mind is chocolate-dipped strawberries. I am not one for romance, as my poor husband can attest – I am as likely to make gagging noises and roll my eyes as I am to feel frisky when he pulls out a good line […]
CARROT GINGERBREAD MUFFINS
A huge part of what’s wonderful about doing things homemade is the smell. I was talking to my mom the other day about how great a feeling it is when your kitchen smells amazing, whether it’s fresh baked bread, chocolate chip cookies, simmering soup, or apple crisp. There is something so rewarding about having someone […]
Orange Chocolate Muffins
You know those times when you truly wonder why we do the things that we do? I had one of those this morning. I was attempting to pull a load out of the dryer, and put a new one in, with the help/hindrance of b’s little exploring hands, so eventually I grabbed the big ball […]
Cranberry Flax Muffins
How was everyone’s weekend? Mine saw soaring temperatures and all sorts of fun. Friday morning was spent at a wonderful local berry farm, where Gemma made gooey eyes at my friend’s handsome son, and they had a great time playing together. The kids loved the berry farm, which definitely catered to families (even someone to […]
Whole Wheat Pumpkin Banana Muffins
Sleep and sugar. I need more of one and less of the other, but I keep getting confused as to which is which. I also get confused by weird orange-coloured banana muffins. But I like them, and I think you will too. I have a lot of recipes that use 3 or more bananas, and […]
Glazed Chai Spiced Muffins
I’ve been trying to cut back on sweets just a little lately, mainly because my 1 year old is a snackaholic and I can’t even look at a snack while he’s awake without being forced to give him some. My 3 year old was never, and still isn’t, that into sweets, and would take raw […]
