Thanksgiving is in two days! yayyy! I cannot wait. I already thought about my day after Thanksgiving lunch… a turkey, stuffing, cranberry sauce sandwich. Hopefully I’ll have a post on it for Friday ready, but we’ll see… depends on how bad my food coma is. I am sad that I didn’t get all of my pumpkin recipes in before Thanksgiving though. I had so many more that I wanted to try out. I can still do pumpkin in December though right? Hopefully I’ll be able to try a few more before Christmas, as well as get into more wintery flavors such as gingerbread, mint, pears, etc. Back to these pumpkin chocolate chip muffins though. I made these for a friend and was planning to send them all to his apartment until I tried one. I immediately got more ingredients out of the pantry and made another batch. There was no way I was sending those all to his apartment when I only had one. They were way too good to give them all away. But seriously, there’s nothing better than eating pumpkin muffins while making more muffins. It’s brilliant. I think every baking adventure should consist of eating baked goods while making more baked goods. Thoughts?
