  6. Add dry group to wet group and mix lightly with a rubber spatula until well combined.
  7. Once batter is smooth fold in star group. You may add your preferred seasoning this time.
  8. Scoop batter into muffin cups, and fill them about 3/4 of the way.
  9. Bake for 15 to 17 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the muffin comes out clean.

A Fresh Start for 2018

2017 went by so fast. Some things may have been left unsaid, goals unmet, and lists unchecked. I for one have a lot of unfinished business. The thing is, I started making lists and plans, and that was it. The stress of preparing to make something took the best of me... and now all I have are lists. Lists of what I should have done.

I have learned that I cannot do everything myself, and not everything has to be perfect and by the book. Moreover, I should be able to take it one day at a time.

On Doodles and Scribbles

Tired of always looking at you cellphone? Why not try a new hobby, or rather, rekindle an old flame? Remember those boring classes in high school where your notes were made up of swirls and lines?

An anti-stress and a creative outlet, both doodling and scribbling can be a form of relaxation. So what are the tools to get started? You just need a paper and a pen. There's no need to break the bank. For the more serious doodler and scribbler, a plain notebook and a waterproof pen or pens would do the trick.  Doodles and scribbles are supposed to be the result of aimless drawing. However, a few minutes after holding a pen, I came up with this... I got to try the Venzi soft blank journal of  Victoria's Journals . It is a 9 by 14 cm plain notebook which I bought at National Bookstore ( 119 peso only). ...
