I love baking, but I don’t get to bake nearly as much as I want to. The majority of my time in the kitchen is spent trying to make healthy dinners or lunches. I don’t mind it, but often when I am sautéing onions or chopping veggies, I’m secretly wishing that I was making cinnamon…

Pumpkin Muffins with Toasted Pecan Streusel
I am totally obsessed with the new show called Master Chef Junior. I just can’t get enough of it. I love cooking competition shows, but I usually can’t handle Gordon Ramsey because he is so loud and mean. However, he turns into a marshmallow when hosting a show where the stars are ages 8-13….
Easy Corn Bread

I had a bunch of ideas for the muffin of the week. First I thought about making some kind of cornbread savory muffin, but then I realized that I want to save that one for when I make chili next week. Then I decided to make peanut butter and jelly muffins and realized I am…

By the time you read this post, I will be on vacation! We are going home for family reunions and to see my brother who has a short leave from the army. In my excitement to leave and the rush to get everything done before we make that 10 hour drive, I must have done…
Muffin of the Week: Strawberry and Cream
So here it is people (sorry, it’s a couple hours late.), the muffin you asked for! I had a poll up last week asking which muffin of the week I should do next. Out of strawberry and cream, peach cobbler, almond poppy seed, orange, and ham and egg , this one was the winner. After…
Muffin of the Week: Healthy Muffins
I love muffins, but sometimes I feel like I am eating dessert for breakfast. Although I love eating dessert for breakfast, my conscience has started to kick in and there is a little pang of guilt inside for eating something as yummy and sweet as a cupcake-in- disguise. So in my search for muffins, I…
