I know, I know! I’m late with the cupcake of the month. I’m sure you were all sitting there, holding your breath, so….here it is! You can breathe, now!
Technically, it isn’t a cupcake. It’s a muffin. And not just a muffin, a mini-muffin! These little guys are perfect in a household with kids. I can toss them to my kiddos after breakfast and it makes them happy. “Cake for breakfast?? K!” I can hand one or two to my kindergartener to snack on during his walk to school with daddy. I can hide one in my mouth, in its entirety when someone catches me in the kitchen at midnight. *ahem*
So, yeah. They’re pretty darn nifty.
Have you done any baking lately? What recipes are you MOST excited about, now that the weather may finally be cooling down?! I know I can’t wait to roast my first pumpkin of the season. Oh goooooodness, I’m just waiting for the scent of nutmeg and cloves to fill my house! I LOVE fall-baking!
First off, I don’t know how long you’ve had that blog header but it’s to die for.
Second off, I’ve been making zucchini muffins almost daily. I can throw them at the kids for breakfast. (I don’t toss, I throw) and Cory can just take a few on his way to work. It’s pretty much perfect.
And yea, I’m so ready for fall. I have a recipe for pumpkin bread I can’t wait to try.

Thanks! I’ve had it for maybe a week or so.:)
I have been using the same recipe for….oh, five years for pumpkin bread. I found it on livejournal. http://community.livejournal.com/food_porn/1581130.html see my comment from 2005!

I agree with the first comment, your blog header is amazing!
I haven’t baked anything in forever, but my mom came over yesterday and made some yummy brownies and chocolate chip cookie bars…does that count!?!(o;
I hope that you have a lovely day and an amazing weekend!

Thank you! I made it about a week ago. :)
That totally counts! I’m the baker in the family, so I have to do it myself.
Have a great weekend, too!

Sometimes I put jam on muffins, which is like putting frosting on a cupcake. So that counts, right? (o: Looks yummy!
