Late as always! But I tried out the carrot ginger soup recipe and now I can give you my opinion of it! So here is my opinion. . .I'm not a huge soup fan at the best of times, and if I am eating soup, i prefer the creamy kinds. For this recipe, cut out the cumin. I followed the recipe, except that. . .
*instead of parsnips I added potatoes
*gauge how much salt is going in based on your broth 
*I added a little bit of cinnamon and sugar to sweeten it a bit
*sour cream is a good topper!
Otherwise, my hubby and family gobbled it up! So feel free to give it a try with recommendations from our home to yours!

Cappuccino Chip Muffins
This recipe came from my sister's roommate (I believe)back in the day (thanks Laura!) Pam was great at making treats for when I came to visit or when she came to visit me, and this is one that I loved--but you HAVE to eat them fresh. They grow somewhat dry if they sit around, so i wouldn't recommend making a big batch. My sister would always make them "Costco-like." You know, with the tops popping over and bigger than the bottoms? For some reason, that makes a muffin just that much better to me! :) I believe this came from a recipe book of her roomie that had 10 or less ingredients per recipe. Or maybe it was 5 or less steps in a recipe. I don't know anymore. Have no clue what the book is. I just like the muffins.
2 c. flour
1/2 c. sugar
1T. baking powder
1T. instant coffee
1/2 t. cinnamon
1 c. milk
1 egg
1/2 c. vegetable oil
1/2 c. semi sweet chocolate chips
Preheat oven to 375F. Grease a 12 c. muffin pan. In a bowl, stir together first 5 ingredients. In another bowl, beat milk, egg and oil. Add to flour mixture until just combined. Mix in chocolate chips. Place in muffin pan--fill to the top. Bake for 18-20 minutes.
Serves: 8-12 muffins
