Have I Run Out of Ideas?

Say it ain't so, Sweet Bee!

Naw - I haven't run out of ideas, but I sure have run out of time to work on them.  

Do you remember this project?  

Well right now it's laying on sawhorses in my sunroom/dining room where it was recently caulked and is awaiting its paint. 

I vow to finish that project by this weekend!

But I did want to share with you one of the tastiest giveaways I've ever won!

I won a giveaway (a few months ago now) from the ever so delightful Kim from Cheap Chic Home.  King Arthur Flour was having a wonderful giveaway through her blog.  It was a muffin extravaganza!

I got those fun tulip (?) muffin wrappers.  

Don't my muffins look all fancy?

It came with the Vermont Maple Walnut Muffin Mix - yummmmmy on a cold winter day.

And also a basic muffin mix.  

I've added chopped dark chocolate to this mix with some orange zest.  YUMMM!

(that's what you see pictured above)

It is SOOOOO much better than any muffin mix I have ever bought at the grocery store.  

And another time....(yes, this mix is good for more than just one batch of muffins)

I added some crushed blueberries and a sprinkling of nutmeg and raw sugar on top. 

(of course, there are no pictures of that 'cause I made those for Baby Bee's birthday sleepover breakfast and they were devoured by ravenous 9 and 10 year old girls before I could even blink)

So thank you Kim 

and 

thank you King Arthur Flour! 

Oh and by the way, King Arthur Flour? 

------dear readers, avert your eyes now if you don't want to read my shameless begging --------- 

Any time you want to have another giveaway, I'm available! 

(that was terrible, wasn't it, but do you blame me?) 

Thank you so much for buzzin' by!  I have enough mix left to make some muffins for us - what kind would you like?  Now don't be shy!  I'd be happy to make you a little treat.
