Lovely muffins! They look delicious. 4 days of grey? You must not be from my neck of the woods. We measure grey days by the month!
I don't think I could live in your neck of the woods! We average 4 or 5 days of clouds a week in the winter, but those 2-3 days of sun are precious to me!
Thanks for the kind words! :)
What cute little muffins!
oh my! i love banana choc chip pancakes so this sounds right up my alley! :)
you should totally make the gateau! just don't overwhip the egg whites, be gentle folding them in, and don't forget the flour ;)
