  3. How sweet that you shared your muffins with someone who probably wouldn't bake them himself. I'm sure he was thrilled that you thought of him. Nice thing to do.

    The muffins look awesone.

  4. Great idea about the sugar topping. As someone who baked for seniors for years, I can tell you it will be very very appreciated. I found that muffins and mini sweet breads were the perfect gift, they can be frozen and taken out as desired.

    Lovely of you to do this ...

  11. They look lovely, Beth, what a shame I can't eat bananas, (sniff).

    I sent the peanut butter chips on Monday (July 28), they may take about 10 days to arrive. And I still haven't decided what I want. I will let you know soon. Sorry about that, just things get in the way sometimes, you know how it is.

  16. Hi Beth,

    I wasn't sure what you meant by "mufin cases" but now I know! Here in the states we just call them muffin tin liners or cup cake liners, ha! We have them in pastel colors here, or even silver foil ones that you don't even have to put in a muffin tin, just on a baking sheet. I have lots of bananas in the freezer so will have to try these.
