THIS is what happens when you have two sick kids who are screaming, fighting, and bored and a mama-san trying to explain to you in half Japanese and half English what kind of mop you should buy because the one you have isn't good enough, and are fitfully trying to get dinner made and in the oven so it can be done before you have to leave for a pre-deployment brief in less than 45 minutes.
Go ahead and double-click on that image to enlarge it and make it REAL BIG. Note the singed edges of the rope ties and the melted plastic saran wrap on the individually wrapped pumpkin muffins. Know that in the center of the black plate there is a very large hole where the plastic has melted completely through. Now imagine the scent of something burning in your pre-heated oven, and me opening the oven to find the baked goods that I had made earlier that morning (which, I may add, were something I had to make to bring to a meeting today and then had to re-make) and stored in the oven so the cat would not get to them, unwrap them, and destroy them.
**Sigh.**

Think of them as your own version of biscotti?!?
:) Hope that made you smile.
That's why I LOVE to cook (eat it right away) and HATE to bake (always to take it somewhere or give to someone who is never home to receive it)....next time hide it in the microwave!! Do you have plenty of wine on hand or leftover Sangria???
I think I'll pass on this recipe as opposed to others you've posted in the past. Just gotta smile, right? What else can you do?@?@?@?@
I'm sorry about your baked goods, but your visual gave me a good laugh!
