God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference – Reinhold Niebuhr
Wishing you a day full of courageous moments!
PUMPKIN! I love all things pumpkin and I love Fall! I have enjoyed the summer. I try to enjoy each moment I am in and not rush on to another moment! A bit ago when the heat was really intense outside, I started to think about pumpkin! Not wishing for Fall but looking forward to it! I always have a can of pumpkin in my pantry and who says pumpkin is only for Fall! So I looked for a different recipe and came across this little gem from Today’s Mama. Of course I had to adjust the sugar and I felt it needed streusel so I created that. I also made a vegan version for my son! He does eat a little bit of sugar, some vegans do not eat sugar. I hope you will try these muffins, let’s not rush through life to the next season but no harm in looking forward to it with a yummy recipe! ENJOY!
I have many family happenings coming up in the next week. I am taking a mini blog break and will see you back here on Tuesday September 6, 2016! Wishing you a beautiful rest of Summer!
