p.s. Here is a lil' magic trick that I learned that has been a blessing in the kitchen. Just thought I would share. :)

Magic Tricks ~

Here is a sneaky lil' trick I thought I'd pass along. It is a secret to help cure the sticky muffin pans when you can't use Muffin Liners. (Everyone cooks better than me & is more qualified in the kitchen so if you already know this helpful hint, just look at the pictures & have a fabulous morning)

Love my card suite muffin pan! Just place wax paper over the top & trace around the shape of the muffin hole. Cut out & place in bottom of holes. Pour muffin mixture in & bake like normal! Pretty tricky ;)
