All I Ask of You

10:29 PM ByFiled UnderEverything Else

My post for today has been re-scheduled.

Because Katy wrote this post, this post that made me cry.

This post that made me remember my cousin Sarah.

This post that You. Must. Read.

This is the post to forward, to Facebook, to E-mail, to Tweet.

You so readily forward ridiculous emails about luck and false warnings.

You so readily Share FB posts about bra colors and high school pictures.

Today, do something  real, powerful and useful with that Forward and Share button for once.

All I ask of you, is that you read Katy’s post– All I Ask

A Big Bowl of Summer

7:16 AM ByFiled UnderFood

blueberries

Freshly washed blueberries

Freshly washed crisp, juicy blueberries ready and waiting to be popped into my mouth, tossed in a smoothie, placed onto a salad or dropped into or on top of fluffy hot pancakes.

I really dont’ think that you can go wrong with one of a big bowl of fresh blueberries next to you.

There’s really no reason for this post other than to say — BLUEBERRIES!!!!!!!!

ahem

Cranberry Raisin Bran Muffins

10:22 AM ByFiled UnderBreakfast, Mouthwatering Monday

[donotprint] My family and I love Bran Muffins.   I grew up eating them and now my kids are growing up eating them.

They’re filling, healthy and chock full of delicious fiber goodness.

While I was browsing my recipe pantry this past weekend I found this recipe card written by my Granny Granny's Raisin Bran Muffins

So, this past weekend, we made some Raisin Bran Muffins — with a bit of a twist — a bit of a modification on Granny’s recipe.

We added cinnamon and craisins

and these muffins flew off my cooling racks!

I don’t have the usual step by steps because I was wrangling two very eager helpers ;-)
