I'm super excited about this week. On Sunday, my baby boy will be a year old! Oh my goodness!! Nothing like saying, "Hey, I kept a human alive for a whole twelve months!"
To start our little countdown, I made my Sunday School class some muffins. I found this base recipe and loved it because you can pretty much do whatever you want and it magically makes muffins. So... I took that recipe and added a splash of vanilla, a cup of apples, and a couple shakes of cinnamon. I combined all three of these ingredients with the wet ingredients from the recipe. I wanted to make sure that all these awesome ingredients were dispersed evenly throughout the dough. Keep in mind that one small apple can easily get you a cup of chopped apples. I didn't realize this, so I ended up with some extra apples, which made me have to make a double batch of muffins-- oh darn! These muffins were spectacular.
Another exciting thing I made this weekend was applesauce. Well, it was kind of applesauce I guess. My son LOVES apples, so I made him some pureed apples (basically applesauce, but without the sugar added). I added some cinnamon (I didn't know if he'd like it, so I didn't add much). Then I realized that I still had some pureed pumpkin from Halloween. So I added it in. I mixed it all up and ended up with some Pumpkin Cinnamon Applesauce. It smelled delicious and my son ate it up like it was going out of style.
Last exciting thing from this weekend was a TV show discovery we stumbled upon. We found that Once Upon a Time Season One was on Netflix. If you have Netflix, put down whatever else you are watching and watch that. Sadly it's only the first season online, so you'll be able to quickly resume whatever you were watching. We watched six episodes last night and I think I'm officially obsessed. It's SUPER Interesting! I love imaginative TV Shows and Movies.
Hope this cheers your Monday right up!
