Happy weekend everyone!

I'm writing this on Sunday, instead of Saturday, but I've managed to change the date so it shows up as yesterday's date. Sneaky!

Because it's the weekend, it's time for the recipe posts! I will also be posting a recipe for today (Sunday).

And because it's December, the recipes will be Christmas related!

Anway, enough rambling. Let's get into Saturday's recipe.

Hope you're having a wonderful life!

This is my absolute favorite muffin recipe! It's so moist and it's pretty much a no fail recipe!

I came across this on Pinterest. If you're not a big fan of fruitcake this is a great alternative. It doesn't have all the fruit peel. You can put the dried cranberries in or you can leave them out and they'll still be delicious! Even better, you can throw the batter into a cake tin and make a cake instead of muffins. These muffins are great on their own, or you can cut them in half and spread a little butter on them. Seriously so delicious and so simple! Hope you enjoy them as much as I do!
