Would you serve a main dish of muffins with a side of muffins, followed by muffins and with muffins, of course, as the bread – and muffins for dessert? I did. My family thinks I’m goofy, but that’s kind of the point. We’re having fun with food this week. If you enjoyed my silly pancake

We threw my sister-in-law a real curveball, coming to visit during Lent when our entire family was grain-free. I’m pretty sure she had a spectacular menu all planned out when I dropped the email bomb about, “By the way, we gave up grains for Lent, and it’s not just a sacrifice thing, but we have
