Canaan and I made a simple batch of muffins this cold January morning. After enjoying one, we decided we should share them with you. Unfortunately, you aren't here. Therefore the best way for us to share is to pass along the recipe and hope you enjoy them nearly as much as we do.

Canaan and momma

Oh a Soup Spoon recipe! What a lovely way to start the day!
These look SO delicious that Eli and I might have to brave the 19 degree weather (yes, really!) to procure some cranberries. MMmmm!

I am certain that all the bundling will be worth it when you enjoy one alongside a mug of tea;)
