I pretty much exactly followed the one I found here. Came out great – I only regret that I don’t have enough elderberry syrup left from this summer’s berries to make many truffles. Vaguely healthy too – dark chocolate, cashew butter, and elderberries are supposed to be good for warding off winter colds. Shipped some …
I think I must be tired. Kevin got a nice roast that he’s planning to cook, the kids say they only want pumpkin pie (one each, Kavi’s with plenty of whipped cream). I think I’m going to go to Trader Joe’s and see if they have those caramelized onion cheese pastry bites I love, in …

Chai-spiced pumpkin muffins with chocolate chips. They are very delicious, and my kids have been devouring them, but I forgot the baking soda, oops! So they didn’t rise properly. I’m going to make another batch soon, I think, so will post photos & recipe then – the next batch will go in the autumn treat …
