The best is yet to come!

I have thoroughly enjoyed each stage of my life, but I've got to say that these mid-life years are really, really nice. Thanks for stopping by to check on this Austin Nana. I like the real thing, though, so come on! Drop by for a coffee date with me sometime soon.

Thing One and Thing 2

Thing One and Thing Two


2 Ingredient muffins...or cupcakes or whatever YOU want to call them. YES...only 2 things you gotta have in your kitchen. A boxed cake mix and a can of pumpkin.  Got this idea off of Pinterest last week and just had to try it out on my poor Book Club gals last night. Thumbs up all around the table.

These actually had 3 ingredients. I added a small bag of mixed chocolate and peanut butter chips to the Devil's Food cake mix and 1 can of Pumpkin. That's it. Stir it all together, put into muffin tins and bake as directed on side of boxed mix for cupcakes. You cOuLD add all KiNds of stuff...like more nuts. But that gets a little more complicated, doesn't it?

You don't taste the pumpkin at all. However, you can mix up the cake mixes for a different flavor, like spice cake or yellow cake mix. I may try to add some cranberries and orange zest to see how those turn out (yum, with either chocolate OR spice cake mix!)
