  1. Gee Linda, I wish I had your patience for baking and cooking like you do. These muffins look so good. Nowadays, the faster I can cook is the best way for me. Unless I get in the mood to cook, then I make enough for a few meals. I will feast my eyes on your recipes

    1. You have the kids, I have my kitchen. It's something to make me happy and 95% of the time I give the baked goods away. I need to be in the kitchen, it my therapy. Your love and hugs from your family is all that matters.
