The first butchering

Pork Chop the chicken has left us.

It was a little weird at first but now it looks like a chicken you would buy from the store. Smaller, but still tasty looking. :) Will let you know how it tastes!!

We had so many strawberries everyday and the kids couldn't keep up eating them the whole time so we made muffins. :)

Strawberry Cinnamon Muffins

Ingredients:

2 eggs

2/3 cup sugar

1/2 cup milk

1/4 cup plain yogurt

1 tsp vanilla

1/2 stick butter, melted and cooled

2 cups flour

1 tbsp baking powder

1/4 tsp salt

1/4 tsp cinnamon

1 1/2 cups strawberries, washed, hulled and cut into small chunks

Directions:

preheat oven to 375 degrees. Line pan with muffin cups.

In a large mixing bowl whisk together eggs and sugar until light. Add milk, yogurt, butter and vanilla. Gently whisk.

In another bowl, combine flour, powder, salt and cinnamon. Add to milk mixture and stir just until flour disappears. Fold in berries.
