Last Saturday I gave a little cooking class for 4 pre-teens; Marta, Lucia, Sylvia and Hannah from our church. These sweet young ladies were a blessing to have and I had such a good time with them. Two of them went straight home and made muffins for their families and Sunday they asked me to give them a “pizza making class”. I hope to find some time this year to do that. We made these muffin recipes:

  1. Doughnut Muffins
  2. Lemon muffins
  3. Coconut Muffins
  4. Cappuccino Muffins

These are the daughters of, my closest friends here in Spain and one other girl was invited, but had a previous engagement.
