The Muffin Experiment
Last week, I was blog hopping and saw a recipe for banana and chocolate chip muffins. This immediately prompted a trip to the grocery store. Unfortunately, once I got to the muffin aisle, my enthusiasm for baking from scratch disappeared and I found a .99 cent bag of ready-mix blueberry muffins.

Don’t get me wrong, they were tasty, but I should have stuck to my guns and made the banana and chocolate chip muffins. In fact, I fully plan to execute my plan…um, this weekend.

More than anything, this little baking experience provided a refreshing break from the summer heat and new photographic subject material. Who knew that sitting in front of the oven with a camera could be so much fun!

It even occurred to me that I might finally learn how to cook if I attached photography to it. Granted, I’ll never be the next Martha Stewart or Ree Drummond (and I don’t really see myself becoming a food photographer), but I’ve been known to do just about anything for a good picture.

Why not add “become domestic” to the list?! Don’t get too excited honey (directed at my husband), there’s probably going to be a mess in the kitchen, but it’ll be fun…right?

And, so what if my blueberry muffins are dinky (when the directions say fill 3/4 full, ignore them…go ahead and fill those muffin tins up!), at least I was inspired to take more pictures. Then again, did I really need the excuse?
