We always spend Thanksgiving with my sister and brother in law.\u00a0 They’ve often come to NY, but for the last few years, we have gone there, and this year we thought that among our other activities, it would be fun to bake something together and blog it here the following week.\u00a0 Louise even found the perfect recipe – Pear Muffins that were absolutely luscious for breakfast Wednesday morning.\u00a0 They needed a bit of tweaking so we sat down to second breakfast [just like hobbits, we are] and made a list of changes – a little more of this, a little less of that, add something different entirely, etc etc.\u00a0 They have a gorgeous kitchen, so I took a test shot to see how the light would be.\u00a0 We decided that we would make the muffins on Saturday, when we had more time.\u00a0 After all, on Wednesday before Thanksgiving, you have a lot to do, like baking pies and making the stuffing and sitting around eating muffins and drinking coffee.\"bakinwsis\"This photo, I think, aptly demonstrates the level of our industry and how busy we were. It takes real effort to make this much of a mess out of the kitchen you know. Saturday was obviously the logical time to make the muffins, so we could take out time and get some great photos of the whole thing, right? Unfortunately, as the week went on, we procrastinated more and more things to Saturday. Louise was getting ready to launch a new blog, and we were going to take some photos of her dogs learning something or other for the new blog, and I forget what else. Nearly everything that didn’t involve eating, going shopping or sitting around doing nothing got moved to Saturday. What we actually did on Saturday was to spend several hours going out to lunch with some friends. Then we came home and got Louise’s new website up and running. You should go check it out HERE<\/strong><\/em><\/a>.\u00a0 And tell her I sent you and that you are all set to become\u00a0a faithful reader of her blog – the kind that comes back to visit several times a day and tells all of your friends to visit too.\u00a0 That is the only way she will forgive me for posting this photo of her kitchen when it was messy.<\/p>\n

Unfortunately though, no muffins were baked or photographed.\u00a0
