    Keep Calm & Create! That’s me. I get very antsy when I’m away from my studio for more than a couple days! The whole muffin/cupcake relationship is pretty interesting too – we tend to say cupcakes aren’t good for you but muffins are healthy even if they’re chocolate chip muffins 😊

      Muffin debate – yes – so true, and the only muffins I can have right now are NOT delicious since I can only have a little fat. I’m workin on it though because baking is therapy for this girl. xox
