Fair Art Contest
The fair is coming to town! Every year that it comes, I submit my art to the fair, and yesterday I dropped mine off. I submitted two painted rock cactuses, two different photos, and a drawing of three giraffes. I have a feeling that my cactuses will do well, and I hope so. The last year, I won a Best of Class award for the first time and maybe I can keep it up. 😀 Wish me luck!
By the way, I forgot to take pictures of my work, but as soon as I can, I will take some and show you what I'm talking about.

Double Chocolate muffins
Hi! I decided to bake some muffins today, so I pulled out a dessert cookbook called Simply Chocolate. I found a double chocolate muffin recipe, and I'm a sucker for chocolate so I just had to.
I followed most of the recipe, but since I did not have enough regular flour, I had to substitute it and adjust the recipe. Here's what I did:
Ingredients:
1/2 cup butter
3/4 cup cane sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
4 eggs
2/3 cup sour cream
12 Tbsp milk
1/2 cup regular flour + 1 cup coconut flour + 1/2 cup almond flour
1 tsp baking soda
2 Tbsp unsweetened cocoa
1 cup dark chocolate chips
NOTE: If anyone is interested, the original recipe's only difference was 2 eggs instead of 4, 5 Tbsp milk instead of 12, and 2 cups regular flour.
Instructions:
Preheat oven to 375 degrees (If you're slow, like me, to put the recipe together, you can wait on this)
Put the butter and sugar into an electric mixer to blend
Beat the eggs, sour cream, and milk into it.
In a separate bowl, sift flour, baking soda, and cocoa and stir.
Mix powder and liquid with an electric mixer
Stir in chocolate chips
Pour batter into muffin pan (don't forget to line them with cupcake liners)
Put muffins into the oven after it is preheated and bake 25-30 minutes
Take out and enjoy
By the way, even with the weird flour, the muffins were amazing. No matter which way you make it, you have to try these! Yum.
