Becoming Betty Crocker

After a bit of Facebook stalking I was inspired by Kallen's amazing food pictures! The girl not only made gourmet meals but also made her own pasta, from scratch!, baked pies, crust and all, while she whipped up homemade cakes! I thought with all the time I have on my hands I would give it a whirl, surprising Andy with my domestic ways and try to redeem myself after the egg incident. I decided to bake muffins, thinking this was fairly easy and safe ( maybe one day I will work my way up to Kallen's Top Chef level!). I also had hand picked blackberries from our walk over the weekend. These muffins were going to be as homemade as you get. I searched the internet for the best recipe I could find and one that would make my muffins like the ones you buy at Starbucks or a fancy bakery with the sugary crusty tops. After finding a recipe I thought would do, being sold on the name "Best of the Best Blackberry Muffins", I went out and gathered all my ingredients along with a whisk and and muffin pan. After about an hour of mixing in the ingredients and looking up baking terms, such as creaming together butter and sugar, I was pouring the mix into the pan, popping them into the oven, and awaiting my masterpiece to be done! And what a masterpiece! They looked amazing, if I may say so myself, and tasted superb! Andy was quite impressed and even took them into work to share! The muffins were devoured with the guys saying "She must be American because these are amazing!" Haha they don't know how to react when they get a bit of flavor!
