Muffins. The ever fave lemon blueberry.. need I say more..
These muffies have some whole grain flour, oats and a fun zesty flavor, as lemon muffins should definitely have!
Lots of stuff going on over the weekend.. The Ricelove Blog hop and networking with lots of fantastic bloggers! Some house work, drives and some wooden boards painted for food photography! I got 2 blues, a white and a brown. The blues, I think are too blue for Seattle, since most days are very cloudy and already give a blue tint to the pictures. Maybe I will repaint them to warmer colors later. Also, this weekend, The crazy situation in a town in India -Hyderabad(link-viewer discretion is advised), where the animals are dying a slow tortuous death because of corruption and a lot of us are trying to support the cause and help change the situation. Lets hope things change for good.
