Food is an Important Part to a Balanced Diet

Cooking is fantastic, but baking is better for sharing. Inspired by my dearest friend Megan, who made chocolate covered pretzel sticks with red white and blue sprinkles for her Election Day party, I made some chocolate covered pretzels. They're way too easy to make, which might be dangerous, because they're so darn delicious.




After a friend's attempts to find fresh blueberry muffins were met with a Hostess of disappointment, I decided that it would be next on my list to bake. I had an amazing recipe that was used at a brunch I hosted, so I busted it out, wiped the crumb topping stains off of it, and produced the most beautiful and amazing tasting batch of muffins to ever grace my dining room table.




Look at that form!



The next morning before starting class, chapel, errands and essays, we made breakfast! Breakfast is the best meal of the day, hands down, but it's so inconviently placed at a time where hand-eye coordination isn't always the best, and where the warm bed is so much more comforting. This makes breakfast a rare treat. French toast, eggs with cheese, muffins, and some minute maid to start our day off right! The best part? Getting to eat eggs that weren't cafeteria made and powder produced. =)

Chocolate-covered pretzels ARE way too easy to make...I made some the day before I had Dresden and ate them all before I went in to labor. Salty + sweet = yummy.
