Shoes That Tie
We bought Gabby her first pair of shoes that tie today. No more velcro here. We're big girls now! And she tied them on her first try!

First Time for Everything
Well, the sickness took a turn for the worse and we ended up in the ER with Gabby last night. We were there for about 5 hours. After some IV fluids, we were able to take her home. She seems to be resting comfortably now.

One Up, Two Down
It's making its rounds. The stomach flu that is. Josh seems to be better but is still not eating. The older two are fighting it big time! Fever, Chills, Vomiting, Diarrhea. Will the sickness in our home EVER END????? I don't think I can take any more bucket cleaning or middle of the night bed sheet changes.
Anyone know a good flu fumigator? I think we might need one over here.

Little AppleSauce Muffins
While the stomach flu kids were taking a well deserved cat nap, I decided to whip up some muffins. The kids aren't eating anything and I thought these might be light enough for their sensitive tummies.
The recipe comes from The Lancaster County Cookbook. Those ladies from Lancaster really know how to cook!
1/2 c margarine (I used butter)
1/2 c sugar
2 eggs
3/4 c applesauce
1 3/4 c flour
1 TBSP baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 c margarine (i used butter)
1 cup sugar
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1. In large bowl, cream together 1/2 c margarine and 1/2 c sugar. Beat in eggs, one at a time. Beat in applesauce.
2. In separate bowl, combine flour, baking powder and salt. Add dry ingredients to creamed just enough to moisten. Spoon into greased miniature muffin cups.
3. Bake at 425 for 15 minutes.
4. Melt 1/2 cup margarine and pour into a small bowl.
5. Combine 1 cup sugar and 1/2 tsp cinnamon in another bowl.
6. While muffins are still warm, dip tops into melted butter and cinnamon sugar. Serve warm.
I baked my muffins in my Demarle mini muffin pan. I just love everything from Demarle
I love how there is no greasing needed EVER! and everything bakes evenly, browns nicely and pops out perfectly every time!
I didn't use all of the butter or cinnamon sugar mixture but that might be because this recipe only made 20 mini muffins in the Demarle pan. Those Lancaster ladies must have extra mini muffin pans because the recipe said it would make 3 dozen muffins!
