Muffins That Pack a Punch

Published

on

Time to switch gears a bit, because now it’s comfort food season. While summer food is light and lovely, when cooler weather prevails, it’s time to turn on the oven to bake some goodies (and carve a pumpkin while you wait). The muffins will make the house smell divine, and what a way to start the day. Or end it! My infusion choice this October is Super Silver Haze, a sativa leaning strain, with notes of wood and cloves.
