Brrrr - boy is it cold today!! -34C with the wind (-29F) - too cold to go for a walk - too cold to do much of anything ... except bake, of course!
When it's cold like that, there is nothing better than to start the oven and heat up the kitchen with some delicious muffins!!
I had some bananas that were quite ripe - so decided to make a recipe I made once or twice before - something with chocolate, of course!
Don't you love my little stand ($5.99 at Winners)?!! Bought it to put some spices but decided today to use it to showcase my muffins!
Hope you all had a great weekend - I had a wonderful one that included lots of shopping!!

Mmmmmm...those look delish! I have bananas that are ripe, but no chocolate chips. Still, I think you've inspired me to at least bake SOMETHING today! :-)
'muffins, mom can we have muffins?' this from my 3yr old son who just walked up as I was looking at your yummy treats....you are right thtas to cold to do anything but turn on the oven and get things a little warmer :)
Your recipes and photos make me want to start baking. I suppose it's never too late. right?
Whaaaa?! I can't even imagine it being that cold!!
They look delicious!
That is the perfect rack to photograph your muffins. I'd be tempted to find something else for the spices. I recall these muffins and they look delicious as ever. -34 degrees, oh my!
Wow, what low temperatures - unbelievable! And these muffins sound delicious - I've got plenty of ripe bananas that would be perfect for this! Thanks for sharing!
As always, your pictures and recipes leave me drooling. Your weather report? Not so much. The drool would freeze on my chin!
Those look yummy! I can't believe how cold it is there!!!
I don't think I have ever been any where that it is that cold. I would never ever leave my house.
