Yummy & EASY Blueberry Muffins

This weekend I decided to try this recipe out of Taste of Home magazine to make blueberry muffins.  It used pancake mix as the base, and I was a little skeptical, but it turned out well and they were SO yummy!  I have lots of pancake mix around as it is something I can buy at the LDS cannery here, so I was excited to find another use for it!!!  I made a second batch this morning, and added some raspberries too.  I also doubled the batch as the recipe as is only yields about a dozen full size muffins.  Anyway, I thought I would share it!  Give it a try and tell me what you think!

Kids' Favorite Blueberry Muffins

Ingredients:

2 1/2 cups pancake mix
1/2 cup sugar
1 egg
2/3 cup water
1/4 cup canola oil
1 1/2 cups fresh or frozen blueberries

Directions:

In a large bowl, combine pancake mix and sugar.  In another bowl whisk the egg, water (I added about 1/4 cup water in addition to what the recipe calls for here because my batter seemed too thick) and oil.  Stir into dry ingredients just until moistened.  Fold in blueberries.

Fill paper lined muffin cups 2/3 full.  Bake at 400F for 14-16 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.  Cool for 5 minutes before removing from pan to wire rack.

Note:  If using frozen blueberries, use without thawing to avoid discoloring the batter.

They look yummy! I wonder if I can use Bisquick in place of the pancake mix?

My Decade Later Comeback and Playing Catch Up

Hello friends, It's been awhile and I kind of dropped off the face of the planet since moving to Oregon. I got busy with growing four babies into teens, and attempting to hold together a marriage with a partner who was working out of town for the most part. It was a lot! Truth be told, I have been spending most of my time over on Instagram which allows for more quick picture and caption posts (@the.amanda.sewell), but I really, genuinely miss having a journal of our adventures, so I'm back.  Some changes, my ex-partner moved out in October of 2023 (after 23 years of marriage, who would have thought?) and I am on a new, single mom adventure with the fabulous four. Luckily, they are adjusting to the changes well as we navigate this challenging time as a family team. Things are still in flux and hopefully at the end of all of this, the dust will settle and we will end up landing on our feet. Because of this change, I needed to go back to work and after not working for the past lo...

(SSD014) - Ear Infections and Pneumonia

I apologize for my late posting today . . . the countdown to being 40 weeks preggo continues.  This week has been crazy out of control already, and it's only Tuesday!  YIKES!   Friday night Baby E was running a fever and really congested.  We gave him tylenol/motrin, but he would not take in fluids, and I was worried about him, so I slept on he floor beside his bed (stupid thing to do at 39 weeks pregnant).  Anyway, I cried a bit, and when I woke up in the morning, I had the most intense pain in my right ear ever!  Seriously OW!   Saturday, Mic took the baby to the pediatrician, where he was diagnosed with double ear infections, and pneumonia -- he had a breathing treatment there, and an antibiotic shot . . . and his lungs were sounding much more clear when he left.  Late Saturday night his fever broke, much to our relief.   Sunday was an okay day, mostly we just all rested -- an interesting thought occurred to me while I was on th...
