I looked around for a recipe for him, and found one- I won’t post it because it wasn’t good enough that we will ever re-use it… but he was a happy, happy boy.  His sister was away at camp so he had the kitchen and mom all to himself.  This is rare- with Maddie wanting to be a pastry chef… she thinks she’s an expert already and constantly bosses him around.

I was able to sit back in my chair with my camera and let him go to town.  I offered advice if I saw he was about to do something that would kill the muffins (tablespoon instead of teaspoon kind of stuff) and take pictures.

They turned out exactly as they should have- they had cinnamon in them and I think that none of us were fond of that- but they were edible.

And not one picture of the finished product… We were too busy eating them while they were warm!
