Whirlwind

As always, the weekend went by way too fast, although it was lots of fun.

My class on Saturday was a blast. I loved it so much and am really excited about making another book soon before I forget how. Mine of course is pink and has horses on the front and back cover and yes, there is some glitter too, go figure. The class was all day (10-5) and then I went to dinner with Sara at her friend Katherine's house. We ate and watched India slides from Katherine's trip to India with her husband a couple years ago. It was a lot of fun, the photos got me really excited to see India.

Sunday was going to be jam packed, but ended up being mellow which was nice. Tim and I ran errands almost all day, came home and I made some vegan pumpkin muffins that ROCKED. I made them to have with breakfasts this week, but we ate a couple last night. They are so moist and fluffy and full of yummy goodness.

Here is the recipe if anyone wants to give them a try.

Yummy Pumpkin Muffins

In a bowl, sift together:

1 3/4 Cup Flour

1 1/4 Cup Sugar

1/4 tsp Salt

1 Tbls Baking Powder

1 tsp ground Cinnamon

1/2 tsp ground Nutmeg

1/4 tsp ground Allspice

1/8 tsp ground Cloves

1/2 tsp ground Ginger

In a separate bowl mix together:

1 Cup Pureed Pumpkin

1/2 Cup Soy Milk

1/2 Cup Vegetable Oil

2 Tbls Molasses

Add wet stuff to dry stuff and mix well. Fill greased muffin tin cavities 2/3 full, more if you have enough batter left at the end and bake at 400 degrees for 18-20 minutes until cake tester comes out clean.

Too boring? Add one cup chopped fresh cranberries or walnuts or a mixture of both, mmmmm.

Tonight I start a 5 week class at San Francisco Ballet called Ballet 101. It sounds really cool, it isn't a physical ballet class, well, one week it will be with a teacher from SFB. It is a class about the history of SFB and a deeper look at some of the ballets themselves. We have a guest speaker every week, some times it is a current artist with the ballet or a choreographer, etc. I am excited. I am meeting up with Jadin afterwards for dinner at Max's Opera Plaza. She has ballet until 8 and that is when my class lets out so we though, why not meet up!
