Things are better when they are smaller.  Not only does this make me feel better about my height--it justifies my overeating on mini muffins simply because they are smaller and I think you can eat more.

I had some bananas that were rotting on the counter.  Instead of throwing them away and then getting fruit flies by the trash can, I made banana chocolate chip muffins for Book Club.  I’m sorry that I didn’t remember the exact recipe.  But I'm sure that i cut down on the sugar and used whole wheat and they were delightful.

If you don’t have one already, MINI MUFFIN TINS are a MUST HAVE kitchen accessory.  I use them all the time.  I find that appetizers and desserts at parties are better made in mini muffin tins--they require no silverware or plates.  it’s just great.  maybe some other time I will post my recipe for pecan pie bites and my raspberry and cream chocolate cups (i need to find a good name for these!)
