Quick Post Amazon's 25 Days of Free

Just a quick post:

Amazon's doing their 25 Days of Free mp3 music again this year.  Every day from December 1st to the 25th, they are giving away a holiday song for free.  http://amzn.to/hqt43H  Okay, so I usually wait till the 24th or 25th, and download all the ones I want then, but you can go in and download them daily if you want something to listen to before Christmas. :)

Happy Listening! :)

Leftover Cranberry Sauce Muffins





I still had cranberry sauce from thanksgiving.  So, I did a bit of googling.  I found this recipe from the serious eats site (love that site by the way). 


Recipe can be found: http://www.seriouseats.com/recipes/2007/11/morningafter_cranberry_sauce_muffins.html


Here's the short version...


Ingredients:

  • 1 cup flour
  • 1/2 cup whole-grain wheat flour
  • 1 cup oats
  • 1/3 cup brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 ½ cups of leftover cranberry sauce
  • 1/2 cup skim milk
  • 1/3 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 egg

0. Preheat oven 400 degrees F
1. mix all dry ingredients in bowl A
2. mix all wet ingredients in bowl B
3.  fold together all ingredients
4. bake in muffin pan til you can stick a skewer in it and it comes out clean.

The recipe by itself is pretty good.  But, dare I say, tasted a bit too... healthy.  I think next time I'll skip the wheat flour and do the whole thing with all purpose white flour.  On the whole, it's quite tasty.
