AAAHHH!!! A TALKING MUFFIN!!



Muffins, muffins, muffins
I made you out of clay
And when you're cooked and ready
A muffin I will play!


I didn't actually make them out of clay. That would be gross.

My favorite bakery of TIME AND ALL ETERNITY is Sugar and Sunshine Bakery of Plainsboro, NJ. Gigi Burton is a baking GENIUS and you should all visit New Jersey SOLELY for her cinnamon rolls and cupcakes. After I moved she gave me the recipe for her blondies, which I have yet to make due to the tragic shortage of chocolate chips and pecans in my communist household.

However. Last night I made her cranberry orange muffins. My communist household has a couple of avid gardeners, and I am lucky enough to share in the spoils. Lo and behold, cranberry orange became raspberry lemon. I also used soy milk instead of whole milk because we have a lot of soy milk.


They're muffiny muffins and not cakey muffins, so they didn't rise as much as I thought they would.

But muffiny bliss does not depend on size.

I'm about to mount a surprise attack.

NOOOOO!

Really, the muffin should have known. It was, after all, irresistibly delicious.

Next time I think I'll add more lemon, which will make my victory over the muffins that much more tangy.

Don't overlook the use of lemon zest for that extra tangy goodness!

POST A NEW BLOG ALREADY. I know you're not doing anything. That's right, I went there.

Sabayon - They turned out really well.

Spencer - I will eat the muffin children too. No mercy.

Elizabeth - I appreciate the comment. I think you have great hair.

Charlotte - Yes, that is definitely what I will do next time!

Spencer - I'm busy reading Harry Potter. I do not have time for this crap.

forget the muffin... I LOVE YOUR HAIR...
or should I say it in a freaky child-whisper staring-out-the-window... "iloveyourhaiw..."

Raych - AAAAHHHH, NOOOOO!!! I wonder what happened to that kid. She's probably been vanquished and sent to Hell after a failed attempt to take over the world. At least that's what always happens to the antichrist in the movies.
