Good day!
Hold the sunshine, please! It’s 900 thousand degrees outside, so the outdoor activity segment of our day has been suspended.
But nonetheless, a good day. I realize that from reading my blog one might think that I hate being a mom and that every day is thoroughly excruciating. That isn’t really true, though I’m more likely to blog about the frustrations than I am to write about the normal moments.

But we get by, and total cliché though this may be, it seems like the more fun we have in the baking, the better the muffins taste. These ones turned out really well, especially considering that they’re made with 100% whole wheat flour. Usually it doesn’t rise very well, but these are moist and fluffy the way you’d want from a muffin. Orange juice seems like a decent replacement for milk, and meant that I could dramatically reduce the amount of added sugar.
Sami was practically chewing the paper liner, she liked them so much.
