stocking up for winter..

i love myself some strawberries when

it's not strawberry season!

so these are off to the freezer!

tonight my new friend keva is coming over

and we're going to have a lil baking party.

i'm so excited!

muffins for my new friend: keva

oh how i love her!

first we went to a local coffeehouse..

which has the best chai i've had as of lately!

last night we went to 'inception'

which of course was an amazing movie.

i am SO blessed!

God could not have given me

a better friend right now... seriously!

mid-week muffin

just some of the ingredients

white chocolate macadamia nut muffins

today is another lovely day outside

and i chose to be inside baking..

with the oven on 400* and now i'm wondering

why i decided to bake on a day like today...

~ perhaps it is because i wanted to use some new muffin liners

(if you look closely you can see little pink muffins)

~ perhaps it is because i LOVE baking..it doesn't matter how hot it is outside.

(right now it is 91* outside!)

~ perhaps it is because i had a new recipe i've been wanting to try.

(it has been calling my name!) and i love myself some white chocolate

macadamia nut cookies...and in a muffin form...yum!

~ perhaps it is because i don't usually bake

with macadamia nuts or vanilla chips and i've had them

in my pantry for some time and been wanting to use them.

one of the longest names of a muffin a might say.

white chocolate macadamia nut muffins.

maybe it should be w.c.m.n. muffins : )

i thought about drizzling a white chocolate glaze on top

(which i still might!) but for now i'm going to see

what my husband thinks of them.

i think they are sweet, just as they are.

but a little white chocolate on top..

would make them look FABULOUS!
