Bran muffins

Happy muffin baking time with Mummy

-

The house has been empty for a few days now and Sophie has been missing her rellie's heaps. We ended up having 10 people around for Christmas dinner which went pretty smoothly, we had Ingrid's father (Mike) and Carol along with mum staying for a few nights - Sophie sure did lap up all the attention and was a little angel all week long.

The weather has been sporadic the past few days, stunning one day, then lousy the next - we've made the most of the fine days by going to the beach a few times and even visiting the Auckland Zoo - and during one of the crappy days, Ingrid and Sophie tackled a few bran muffins. As you can tell by the photo's Sophie loved every minute of it - in fact, she loved them so much she practically ate the lot...we unfortunately ended up paying for it the following day...lets just say nappy changing was a lot less pleasant than normal...

"This is how you do it...you check for consistency of the dry mix"

-
"then stir it around and around"
-
"then spoon some mix into the muffin holders...being very careful not to spill any"
-
"ohh mummy that's too much...take some out"

Even time to check out my special fairy outfit Grantz bought me for Xmas
