Ready for some serious sunshine, I whipped up these muffins last night. Even though my reality is that I am hoping for more snow, I was craving a little spring and the frozen peaches were calling from the freezer. These muffins are super moist and I added some ginger and cinnamon for a little kick. My kids were surprised, yet happy to see some peaches during the winter.
Hope these bring you a little ray of springtime today.

One of the hardest things I find about managing both life threatening food allergies and asthma is talking to others. I hate to be the one that might be perceived as demanding, pushing or for asking too much. What I now know, fourteen years later, is that honest, clear information presented with kindness works!..
