Walking is good, muffins are better.

Today was long.  I got to visit with a friend that is moving back to another country, which was lovely.  It was just hard to muster up the energy to drive all the way there.  Of course, as expected, once I was with her the time flew, and I loved every second of it.  I shall miss her when she goes back to Brazil, but I know that she will be home then.  We walked into town and ate at a lovely cafe/bakery place--much like the Common Cup.  We ate the soup and bread, split a danish, and drank fluffy coffee shop type beverages.  Note: I don't know exactly what makes up an "Italian smoothie," (and it does not include fruit), but it is delicious.  (And, upon further review, I think it's the same as the Bunnies at Kodiak Coffee.)

So, my endeavor tomorrow is to bake muffins!  Last weekend, I had the most amazing (cinnamon swirl cheesecake) muffin, and now I have the desire to make good muffins.  Better than any out of the box kind.  So, I have a recipe picked out from the America's Test Kitchen cookbook, and I am going to give it a go.  I enjoy my cooking sprees, because it usually turns out quite well.  (Other possible muffin recipes: Raspberry Cheesecake Muffins, Blueberry Muffins.)
