So what am I willing to spend my limited energy on? Then Julia says, "Mommy, what kind of muffins can you make?"
Without thinking too hard about it, I respond, "Pumpkin." Well, then. I guess its settled. I'm making muffins.

Make some.
Eat some.
You can die now.
Don't worry, it'll be OK. Just leave some muffins for your family, they'll be fine.
