I love making a double batch of these muffins so that I can save them for breakfast on another day. They freeze well and can be taken from the freezer to thaw overnight on the evening before you plan to serve them.

  1. Been to Dolly Wood, we loved it, but one day there was not enough….try to watch the live country music, when we went it was Dolly’s relatives in the Band….we did not get to see her, I hope you do, they say she makes appearances all the time but no one knows when…..so good luck….lots of good food there too…..

    The Pumpkin muffins you made look so delicious….can’t wait to make them….

    The Cheddar Biscuits looked amazing…wish you had shown us what they look like inside….don’t you do the taste text online so we can see you taste them….I thought you used too, I know many of the blogs do that I watch :)….and I love seeing the finish product what it looks like inside….
    We used to get these at Red Lobster….but it’s been awhile since we were there….have to drive an hr. to get there…..

    What Magazine were you talking about ? You did not mention it…..I did not know you were writing for one…..wasn’t getting your msgs. for awhile or something happened…so I guess I am so behind in your blogs….is there a place I can go to get caught up on them?
    I was wondering how your Son ever got after getting hurt ?
    Your Daughter what I could see is very pretty….next time include her in your video…I think people would love to see her….maybe you have before and I missed it tho….

    Take care, and enjoy your trip to Dollywood….I think you will love it…..
