Baking and Crafting

We made a new muffin today! Well, probably not NEW as much as different. Yummy!!

Oatmeal Apple Muffins

2 2/3 cups fresh ground whole wheat flour
1 ½ cups rolled oats
2/3 cup Savannah Gold with molasses
2 Tablespoons baking powder (recent additions, sorry)
¼ teaspoon nutmeg
½ teaspoon cinnamon
2 to 3 apples peeled and finely minced
2 beaten eggs
1 ½ cup milk
½ olive oil

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Combine the first five ingredients in a large mixing bowl. Stir in the minced apples. Add the wet ingredients and stir until mixed. Bake for 20 minutes. Makes two dozen muffins.

This weekend, we are heading to a "Girls Only Birthday Weekend". We are celebrating our cousin's 13th birthday. It will be a weekend of crafts and fun. One of the crafts we will be doing is decorating journals. I thought we should practice to make sure it works. Here are the results:

We were very pleased and it went quite smoothly!

The pens turned out good too. Boo keeps asking "when will it be girl's week?" We are making lists and gathering craft stuff. It's going to be sooooo much fun!

BTW did you add a feature and have a "chaser" on the curser? I'm getting "sparkles" when I move on your site or have you always had them and I just noticed them now.

Those look really great but I'm not sure what Savanah Gold is. Could you please tell me what that is?
Thanks so much and have a blessed day!

Thanks so much for letting me know what it was : ) I'm going to see if I can find something similar to it here in Canada.
