Grandma Miller's "Pile o' Muffins"



Boy, have we been lucky in the past several days or what? Yet another one of our favorite bakers came through. This time it was Grandma Miller providing us with a pile of blueberry and chocolate chip muffins. We've had lots of Grandma's baked goods - banana bread, zucchini bread, and chocolate chip cookies - the real toll house kind!  The muffins met our expectations and the best part was that they were reasonable in size so that you didn't feel like caloric overload eating a single one.  If everyone ate muffins this size we might put a dent in the obesity plague in the US. We're sorry that Grandma is not on Facebook so we could friend her but maybe we will start a fan page.  As you can see from the picture Grandma wisely prefers comfortable footwear at special functions. We learned also that Grandpa Miller raises rabbits for fun, for pets and if appropriate for Hasenpfeffer!  We are so impressed that we proposed to take a field trip to visit the site of all this homespun activity. Stay tuned!

Conversation dwelt a little on the retirement of an associate dean and odd people that act out in luxury hotels.  We certainly cover a lot of subjects.

Also pursuant to one of our previous discussions about the neuropathologist and the corpse, according the the story link below, the neuropatholgist will clearly have to do the traveling!

No one has singed up for cake hour tomorrow so the pressure is on to find a "volunteer"!
