Green! One of my favorite colors!

Oh my gawd ya’ll, I didn’t realize just how far behind I was until - um - two minutes ago. I have H ready to go and should have it up before the 22nd (after all, my birth-week doesn’t start until the 23rd so any craziness will be on the down low, and we can safely say it isn’t “happy” as in happy birthday).

F is for…

Fiber (or is it Fibre?)!

Thanks to the Mr. for taking the photo.

C is for…

Cash and chocolate.

UPDATE: It’s time for me to fess up… The Mr. wants credit for all the grunt work shy of uploading and posting the photo above. Mr., thank you for all your help with my “C” - and for listening to me talk non-stop about this silly blog thing!

Blueberry Bran Muffins - my favorite!

ETA for Heather:

1 ½ cups bran cereal
1 ½ cups milk*
1 ¼ cups whole wheat flour*
1 teaspoon baking soda
½ cup sugar
1 egg
¼ cup oil
½ cup rinsed blueberries

*if using all-purpose flour, reduce milk to 1 ¼ cup.

In a medium sized bowl mix together the cereal and milk. Let soak for five minutes, or until the cereal has soaked up most of the milk and is soft. The stick-like cereal will absorb milk much better than the round buds. If using the buds, be sure to run them through a food processor to break them up, or you’ll be soaking for a long time.

In a larger bowl, mix together the flour and baking soda, set aside.

To the bran mixture, add sugar, egg and oil, blend thoroughly with a spoon or fork.

Pour the bran mixture into the flour and stir together, gently fold in ½ cup rinsed blueberries.

Bake at 400° for 20 minutes iregularg regualr sized muffins, 25 minutes if making large muffins.

Makes 12 regular sized muffins, 6 large muffins.
