Muffin Tin Monday

Happy Monday everyone!

Muffin Tin Monday at Her Cup Overfloweth

I was not to be excluded from Muffin Tin Monday this week and made sure I got back from grocery shopping in time to prepare one for Willow! The theme is shapes. I didn't really go all out with it due to having grocery bags all over the kitchen floor and a fussy Ryder. But it turned out to be a good thing because she hardly touched it. She ate the crackers and nibbled at the sandwiches. Poor thing had an upset tummy. We've all been kinda sickly this past week or two.

Top: rectangle Wheat Thins, flower cucumbers, animal-shaped crackers
Bottom: oval grapes with raisins, triangle peanut butter sandwiches, strawberry stars.

You may have (though probably not!) noticed that I have not been keeping up with my weekly menu planning. There is a good reason for this. Stephen has been extra busy this month with work and other things making his schedule a bit unreliable to plan around. Usually, if he ends up not being home Willow and I will grab something quick. Things should get back to normal over the next couple of months though so I'll be getting back to that. I need to get more organized all round really. My goal for this week is to tackle all the junk drawers in the house, not a small project!

BTW I have a giveaway coming up that I'm very excited about. My second one yet! Stay tuned for that!

Nice muffin tin! I think I should start that one too but too afraid that I can't keep it... sometimes just too lazy!! hehehehe

Talking about tackling those junk drawers, my hubby did that for me last weekend coz I'll never get around doing it as I'm a serious hoarder! I love to keep junks! :P
