| Bake and Share |
While my fingers tickle these keys, the snow is falling outside making our little town into a winter wonderland. We are expecting between 4 and 7 inches of snow today and I bet the kids across the street were hoping more would have fallen last night so school would be canceled and they could go sledding on the hill out back. But it seems to be an all day thing.
Which is great since I don’t have to go anywhere. Not having
a job sucks, but not having to go to work on a day like today is wonderful.
Instead of driving on ice through traffic to the corporate jungle, I get to
stay home and watch movies with my hubbie, drink hot cocoa and bake muffins to
give away on Sunday.
This Sunday marks our first anniversary (which I have to
say, anniversaries are so much better than weddings – less fuss and muss and
more fun!) and since it also coincides with Bake
and Share Day, we thought we would share with the congregation and give
them some mini muffins to thank them for making our first year of marriage
amazing.

| This just smells and tastes like the holidays - Cranberries and Oranges |
I have four recipes planned, but I don’t want to go too
overboard. First, my holiday favorite Orange, Cranberry and
Nut muffins. This recipe is a classic from Ocean Spray and I usually make
it as bread, but today I am going to try mini muffins. (We tried these for
breakfast this morning and loved them!!!)

| Chocolate for breakfast - yum |
The recipe that triggered this whole thing was Triple Chocolate
muffins from the Dec 2013 Cooking Light magazine, which may become Paul’s
new favorite. Then a muffin party wouldn’t be complete without my famous Morning Glory muffins
with dried fruit and nuts and bananas. Lastly are the Pumpkin Chocolate Chip
muffins which has no picture since they will be done tomorrow morning (ran
out of eggs – oops).

| Oh what a Glorious Morning with these muffins |
What could you bake and share this holiday season?
