I was inspired by Patty's amazing cooking up in Covelo - I decided to make muffins from scratch. They weren't as good as Patty's, but Peter LOVED them - so I'll call it a success. I snapped this picture of myself, pointing proudly at the bran muffins, made in part from Trader Joe's "Bran Clusters with Raisins" cereal - I don't think it's the ideal cereal to use, but it's all we had - you're not usually supposed to 'experiment' with baking, but I couldn't resist. I got lucky this time - they were pretty good!
