How about a little something sweet for Halloween weekend? Pumpkin snickerdoodles? Don’t mind if I do! Truthfully I don’t think I’d ever made a snickerdoodle prior to this, but it is certain to be a repeat item in my home. Snickerdoodles are soft, cakey little cookies rolled in cinnamon sugar and flattened slightly before they [...]

Recent weeks have seen me spending quite a lot of time wandering* around Lidingö, a rather affluent suburb of Stockholm where there are huge houses with million dollar views and magnificent sprawling yards. Most of these yards boast an assortment of fruit trees, many of which lean against the fence at the perimeter of the yard and arch [...]

Birthday cupcakes? Dang straight! The Muffin Myth was launched one year ago today! If I may, I’ll take a moment to thank once again the people responsible for helping me get this project off the ground, those who continue to support me in this endeavor, those who read, and those who actually make the recipes I [...]

My friend Lindsay taught me how to run. I mean, I was always physically capable, I think, but I had viewed running mostly as something that was necessary only when being chased. Or something conceived by my high school gym teachers, who would torture us by seeing how many times we could run around the [...]

Last Thursday marked the end of two weeks of total insanity and the beginning of a weeks break from school. I went pretty much straight from a midterm to the airport and made the trek to Sweden to spend my week off with my fella. Stockholm greeted me with a pile of snow and freezing [...]

We just had a little birthday over here at The Muffin Myth. As in the royal we. As in, I’m now thirty-two. Just let me take a moment to digest that; it some how seems so much older than 30 or 31. In a good way though, rounder, more complete. Am I making any sense? [...]
