A Strawberry Kind of Day

Today is bible study day.  I got asked to make the treats for our morning study.  These ladies don't know me well enough yet to know that I love to make goodies for people and bring things.  I love to cook and bake.  I have a million (well, not really a million...but close!) recipes for muffins and breakfast foods.  The problem for me is which one to pick for the ladies!  I decided on Yummy Strawberry Muffins.

I have this little recipe holder in my kitchen that sits on my counter.  Isn't she darling?  A little gray elephant with a baby blue bow in her hair. 

The batter all mixed up with the fresh strawberries cut up inside.  If you sniff hard...maybe you can smell the strawberries.  Can you?  :)

Pink cupcake liners because pink is the best color in the whole wide world...according to me.  :)

The finished product.  I sampled one just to make sure it was worthy of making a trip to bible study this morning....yup!  It is.  :)

Now, who wants to come help me with the dishes?  :)



Here is the recipe if you are interested.  Enjoy!
