Last day off before work.......

I woke up this morning and wanted to bake something......I had found a recipe for Blueberry Bran muffins, so thought I would give it a go.  I even had all the ingredients, so no special trip to the store.  YEA!!!!

The recipe was pretty easy and everything went together great.  I decided to make the muffins in the little mini muffin pans.  I always feel like I am being "Good" if I only eat a mini muffin instead of a large one.....the trick though is to only eat 1 or 2 mini muffins.....Good luck with that!!!!

They came out pretty good....I think I would like them better as a large muffin only because the fresh frozen berries make little soggy spots and they are really noticeable in these little muffins.    I guess it doesn't help that I used more berries than the recipe called for!!!!

Since these turned out soo well I decided I would try the recipe with fresh frozen cranberries.......I made these in the large muffin pan because the cranberries are huge and I would barely be able to get much bran in with a couple berries.....and then would probably have a soggy mess.

These turned out great!!!  A little tart and I probably should have used a bit more sugar to compensate for the tart berries, but  I thought they tasted pretty good and they disappeared at work, so they couldn't have been that bad!!!  I have never made bran muffins before so this was a total experiment.....I can't wait to make more...

I finally got around to looking at my fabrics for the grocery bags.  I actually got grannies nighties cut up and can get 4 maybe 5 grocery bags.   The Royal Blue will be the base bag fabric and then the nightie fabrics will be the accent.  

 It's been quite awhile since I sewed anything, so this should be fun....  I have a couple other grocery bags that never got finished, so guess now is as good a time as any, right???

The floor is cleared and the papers are shredded, so it's time to set up and do a little sewing!!!!!
