So, I've added them to my sidebar & like to think that these three tell a little story... ;)
Sam's working out & sees Dean watching him...

Sam's all 'like what you see? Strip!'

Dean doesn't have to be told twice!

*g*
I've had some lovely responses to my 1920's AU McShep art, 'World, far away', &, as I'd mentioned that I felt it could easily be viewed as Lord John & Rodney from my Big Bang story 'Time & Tide', it's been lovely to have a few comments to that, too!
I love the idea that people are coming new to something that I wrote quite a while ago. :)
In completely different news, with the installation of a new window blind our kitchen renovation is finally complete! \o/
It's a whole new kitchen (everything was ripped out) & I absolutely love it! (I'll take some pics to share when I get a second.) It's a fairly small area (no room for seating but it does lead into the dining room through an open doorway, so that's not a problem) but the new layout has given me so much more storage space! I actually have empty shelves! LOL Although, I've rediscovered my love for baking (after a break of over 15 years) & so I doubt they'll stay empty for long with all the supplies I'm buying. *g*
I'm finding the baking very therapeutic for my depression, funnily enough.
I'm concentrating on fairly straightforward stuff like muffins for now, but I'm loving baking them from scratch, & the measuring, sifting & mixing is weirdly soothing. :)
My lovely

I'm also planning to try out some raspberry & lemon muffins, & some carrot & pineapple wholemeal muffins. The recipes sound very scrumptious.
If anyone has any favourite muffin recipes - please do share! :)
Happy Thursday, all!
*hugs*

Are you in the UK?
Who's the dancing red-headed woman on your sidebar?
no subject
Yes, I'm in the UK.
That's Felicia Day playing the role of Charlie in Supernatural. (She's awesome!)

I'm afraid I don't have a proper recipe, but my favorite muffins are made with bananas and dark chocolate chips :) Yum!
May there be plenty of chocolatey goodness in your future! And a morsel or two for Buddy (if it's good for him...)

Mmmm, I love chocolate (though I'm more of a milk choc kind of girl. *g*) Funnily enough, I don't mind eating a banana as it is, but I don't enjoy bananas in other stuff. Weird, I know!
Well, Bud doesn't get any people food but he does get the left over pear skins which he loves. :)

I don't normally like banana in stuff, but I do love them in two things. The muffins, and a pork, cream, banana curry thing. Probably sounds vile, but it's so good...LOL
I'm usually a milk chocolate girl too, but I do love dark chocolate in muffins and cakes :)
no subject
You're right. I think some tastes just really work in combination. Like raspberry & dark choc (one of the few times I do like dark choc! *g*)

It offers a variety of flavor combinations. My favorite is dried strawberry/cranberry and chocolate chip. I use a little butter and a cup of apple sauce. It requires more baking time with this substitution but is very yummee. :D

I'll be posting some kitchen pics asap!

Always my favorite!
I love muffins.

Mr B is loving all the baking & seems disappointed when he comes home & I haven't done any! But we do need to eat the ones I've already made! (I've bought this cool little individual muffin-sized snap-lid container so he can take one to work each day, too. LOL)

I think Mr B is definitely enjoying it. I baked P&G muffins plus some lemon & raspberry yesterday afternoon, & so the house did smell rather fab when he got home. :)
