Yummy Banana Muffins

Welcome back!
Banana Muffins are so moist and so tasty. I always make them when I have a bunch of bananas that have become overripe. The riper the bananas the sweeter muffins.
The fact that the bananas compensate so you need less fat and added sugar is just a pleasant plus.
I usually use less sugar and I add some chocolate chips. The combination chocolate/banana is out of this world.
This must be one of the easiest recipes that was ever made. You make them from scratch in just a few minutes.
Battle the Viruses with Garlic Soup
February 12, 2010 by Carolin · 2 Comments
Talk about sneaky. No one would know that I added over 15 garlic cloves to this recipe.
Today I really felt like we needed an anti-virus and immune system boost. Garlic is the easy answer to that. But HOW was I going to get garlic in the kids. Sure I use garlic a lot in my cooking but nowhere near as much as I used in this recipe.
So for dinner today I made my first garlic soup. I don’t even think that I had ever had garlic soup before.
It was so tasty. It wasn’t spicy and it didn’t taste or smell of garlic. It just had a really full taste. A powerful version of a tomato soup.
We all loved it!
I bet it will give me a calm day tomorrow cause no one will want to talk to me. 
Ultimate Bread Roll Recipe

I made this bread yesterday as I was on a 24-hour fast. If you’re not used to making bread from scratch you should really give it a try.
It is:
- easy
- healthier that store bread
- cheaper that buying
- the smell that spreads in the house is heavenly
I fasted yesterday to cut down calories and lose weight . The fast gave me such an energy kick I just had to bake. This is the bread I had for dinner as I ended my fast. Yum.
I never bother with how breads look. It’s the taste that matters. Here it is was my kids who made the rolls and I think they did a pretty good job.
