Moist pumpkin streusel muffin recipe from @bakedbyrachel

So I made you some muffins. Some really good muffins.

But not before I had the chance to finally watch The Fault In Our Stars. So good. Of course, I liked the book more. And I didn’t bawl my eyes out like a lot of people did. Sure, I still cried. But I think my less emotional reaction to the movie was because I knew what was coming and got all of that emotional stuff out reading the book… because come on, major tear jerker. If you haven’t read it or seen it yet, be sure to read it first. Very good read, even if it’s sad. It’s happy too.

I want to read more books like that. Books full of emotion and meaning. Have you read any good books lately? I’m still stuck in the middle of one. That seems to happen a lot, unless it’s a really good book, then I fly through it. If it’s just mediocre it’s hard to keep going. But I will… eventually.

In the meantime…
