Oh, and I added ground flax seed. so... not as pretty. But oh so good.

I'm totally convinced that you're made of rainbows, glitter, tentacles and pure awesomeness! Am in love with the muffins disguised as cupcakes... very sneaky. Not to be a party pooper but might you include calories per serving in your recipes? I do appreciate the easy but fancy cooking like this one. You're so cool.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13484698476726182332noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5787754116379186681.post-1473506467919431002013-01-20T14:22:23.859-06:002013-01-20T14:22:23.859-06:00Thanks for the suggestion!

I normally like lemon flavor, but my grandmother was an enthusiastic zester when I was a kid and I think she used to zest too far into the rind, so everything had a bitter/gross taste. I was thinking I would try just leaving the zest out of the glaze. :)Brittnyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17806529636291998536noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5787754116379186681.post-55730102962265020672013-01-19T18:11:36.063-06:002013-01-19T18:11:36.063-06:00Quadruplets -my husband bought home a set a couple...Quadruplets -my husband bought home a set a couple weeks ago, and I had same thought as Amy, but my comment was already too long to mention that too :)Kandenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5787754116379186681.post-82732439465419752742013-01-19T18:05:41.133-06:002013-01-19T18:05:41.133-06:00They were seriously the best muffins I have ever m...They were seriously the best muffins I have ever made and probably also best I ever consumed, but I have eaten a lot of muffins in my day so that is harder to verify. I do classify them as muffins btw - for the very obvious reason that I am on a diet and everyone knows muffins are more ok whereas cupcakes are less ok. Especially if you eat three in a row.Kandenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5787754116379186681.post-16177142856311657562013-01-19T13:24:59.355-06:002013-01-19T13:24:59.355-06:00Oooooh please let me know how they turn out!

Thank you so much for doing this, there is a Canadian Cookbook called "Looneyspoons" - the latest is the Looneyspoon collection - seems like a very similar format to yours in that awesome recipes are combined with humour and a fun read! <br /><br />I haven't had time to read through the comments (am making them and typing this while simultaneously amusing a 3 year old) - but my one suggestion is that it is great to list the full ingredients at the start (for purchasing purposes). But then when we are on the part of making the food, could you list the amounts all again (ie. rather than "flour, baking powder ..." etc. list the amount again. Because I had to scroll up and down (as had to make sure I was doing the changed ingredients i.e. sugar right amount). Which would be easier on the ipad but I was using my computer. <br /><br />Otherwise - love it! Especially the "use one medium zucchini" part. Which is SO much better than the "use 3/4 cup of zuccini" because then I am left wondering wtf is 3/4 cup of zucchini? And panic I won't have enough, so way overbuy, and then am stuck with rotting zucchini in my fridge and my husband asking me "Why do you buy zucchini if you aren't going to use it?" and I'm like "I did use it, in the muffins you wanted me to make RYAN" and then it's really weird because my husband's name isn't Ryan.Kandenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5787754116379186681.post-36502795084447762292013-01-19T11:59:01.140-06:002013-01-19T11:59:01.140-06:00A.
