Go Away! Shoo!

Don't call me. Don't fax me. Don't email me. Don't even think about me.

Some people just can't take a hint. It is painful.... dreadfully painful to have to politely brush someone off. Believe me, if I could shove this person off, I would. Alas, having have to co-work with so and so makes a 'polite brush' very necessary.

PISS OFF!!!

Excellent. I feel much better now after venting.

Yummy! Yummy!

Granola Muffins

1 1/3 cup flour
2 cups granola
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt

2 eggs
1/3 cup brown sugar
1 cup buttermilk
1/4 cup canola oil
1 teaspoon vanilla

Directions

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Prepare the muffin tins by greasing them well.

1. Combine the dry ingredients including the granola in a large bowl.
2. Whisk the egg, brown sugar, buttermilk, oil and vanilla together until the sugar is dissolved and the mixture is smooth.
3. Pour the liquid ingredients into the dry ingredients. Mix with a spatula until just combined.
4. Scoop the batter into the prepared tins. Sprinkle the tops with oats. Bake for 15 minutes or until the muffins test done. After the muffins have cooled for several minutes, remove them from the tins to cool on a wire rack.

Makes ten medium or 12 small muffins.

Portrait Of A Lady

Not being the kind of person who really bothers how society percieves me, I have been rather amused by a few...'feedbacks' that I've received lately. New friends, colleagues and familiar strangers.

Fierce. Cold, initially. Approachable. Brutally straightforward (this one I can't deny). Wild (What the ...???). Classy (This one was meant in a good way). Like I said, amusing.

What do you percieve? Go ahead, amuse me.
