If you've noticed, I've done a little more baking than usual lately -- or I should say my kids have gotten into cooking and they've been doing a little more baking than usual.
This is another recipe from Muffins Galore by Catherine Atkinson that Travis tried out while my mom was here. The title is "Chocolate Cheesecake Muffins" and use a chocolate muffin batter with a cheesecake-ish filling topped with almonds.
How were they? Eh .. not memorable. Amazingly they didn't have much flavor and didn't seem to be worth eating. (Though refrigerating them seemed to help their texture.) So, a recipe we won't be making again. (Makes a great looking photo though!)
What else is happening around here? Well, our beautiful new pool has not been getting the workout I thought it would -- Liam developed his first ever ear infection so he's been banned until at least Wednesday. The weather has just been miserably hot (like 108) so we've all been staying inside as much as possible (and to the kids happiness they've been play Warcraft a little more than I would like). Oh and speaking of Warcraft, Travis got his 2nd character ('toon) to 70 last night with a little help from me and another player so he's a happy camper.
Happy Monday all!
