Muffins, Mmmmmm


My kids love blueberry muffins and they love to bake so I thought I would let them help me out. They actually do a pretty good job. They gently pour ingredients into the bowl and they have learned to stir in such a way that most of the batter stays inside the bowl. They can even fill the mini muffin cups with minimal mess. But after the muffins were out of the oven my girls stood watch at the counter waiting for them to cool off like they were the Crown Jewels. In the process they managed to cough on, sneeze on and otherwise contaminate Every. Single. Muffin. I don't know what's worse, the risk of salmonella from eating uncooked batter or eating one of these cooked muffins with who knows what kind of germs now crawling all over them.
