I have been a little under the weather lately, nothing like a good end of the season cold I always say. It has made me extremely unmotivated in the kitchen. Today I woke up feeling better than I have in days so I decided to do a little meal prep for the week. I didn’t…

Nothing says “valentine” quite like a tray of freshly baked corn muffins, am I right?! Hold on. What? ….. ….. Ok, I’m not actually being serious. I wanted to share this recipe with you guys last week but I was too lazy and my motivation hit today when everyone else in the blogosphere is sharing…
