  • My favorite combination for poppy seeds is lemon or orange, so these muffins must be delicious.

    And I love the breakfast set, we also have it, isn’t it cute??
    We haven’t use it yet to bake something, it scares me (even if you know you can do it), but now I see this, I think I won’t be able tu resist anymore 😛

    Happy new year, I hope I’ll see much more delicious things here next year!!

    • Hehe, at first I was also a bit scared but as it turned out it works perfectly for the oven. 🙂
      HAPPY NEW YEAR to you too Paula!
