I feel what you wrote in your post today, Claudya. I am a little non-existent right now, as my head is all focused on my wounds. 😀 Taking longer than it should, thanks to an allergy kicking in at the most inappropriate time. Although, what time is appropriate for any setback? 🙂 Hugs. You inspire.

It is wonderful to be grateful even when there is plenty to say against it. Have a great week!!

Yeah it’s so easy to focus on all the crap when really there are so many things we can all be grateful about. Happy Saturday to you!

In reply to unknownmami. Awesome. I do the applesauce trick with brownies (in lieu of oil), but didn't know it could work for butter too. Thanks!

In reply to Becca Gallery. Maybe I'll post the recipe next week. I would say these are a bit more dense/hearty than the Mexican chocolate oatmeal muffins. I don't think I can choose between the two as I like them both. The carrot ones are low fat because I replace the butter with applesauce, which also lets me cut the sugar in half.

carrot cake – great with rich frosting and crunchy nuts. I don’t know about your muffins but I bet your family loves them. Muffins are more personal than cakes. Sharing cake is more common than sharing muffins. I should apply for grant money to study the differences between cakes and muffins. Nah, maybe I’m just getting the late afternoon munchies.

Ah it might be a reminder that you use the “L” too much. Lay off the “L” or else a little key will leave you “ove” instead of “love”.
