Swimming with the Manatees in Mexico.
The mamatee kissed him too!
RECIPE
I don't remember where I got this, stole this, but it sound good to me.
"Lemon Poppyseed Muffin in a
Mug Recipe:
(This is a great, quick protein snack or dessert)
Spray a mug with non-stick cooking spray.
Whisk 1 egg into that mug.
Add 2 T. almond flour (you can grind your own almonds)
Add 2 T. milled flax seed (you can grand your own flax seed too)
Add 1 t. butter
Add 1/2 t. poppyseeds
Add juice and pulp of 1/2 lemon
Add 1/8 t. lemon extract
Add 2 g. (2 packets) raw Stevia powder
Add 1/2 t. baking powder
Dash of salt
Whisk all this together in the mug.
Microwave on high for 1 minute 25 seconds.
Turn muffin out onto a plate and let cool a bit before eating.
I tried this without the butter and then with the butter. The butter helps immensely, making it nice moist muffin with that great lemony taste!

Happy Thursday!!
Sweet Hugs,

I am sooooo jealous over swimming with the manatee. i would love to do that and i can tell he did to. the helpers just made me laugh... dogs are so fun.
ReplyDelete"When the power of love overcomes the love of power..." I love that quotation. Thank you for sharing.
ReplyDeleteThe manatee hugs photos are precious!
The picture of the dogs helping is just like my one...she is always under foot when I am painting.
ReplyDeleteSwimming with the manatees has got to be a life high point. Awesome.
ReplyDeleteLove today's 'lift'!
ReplyDeleteGood morning to you Sandie.
ReplyDeleteoh how nice is that Swimming.
ReplyDeleteOh that lift!
Morning Sandie girl and good as usual you blogs.
Thanks for the recipe Sandie... You knew I would want to try that one. Sounds really good... and healthy.
ReplyDeleteCute GS!!! Looks like he really had fun!!... Thanks for the recipe.

wow what a great muffin recipe- and the dogs under the sink cupboard is hilarious! Have a splendidi day and thanks for visiting my blog- much appreciated!
ReplyDeleteThe recipe sounds good and that dog helper picture is priceless. Just like my dog.
ReplyDeleteThat's a lot of calories for a muffin. Wow.
ReplyDeleteLoved the laugh and yes they are helping.
Have a terrific day. ☺
love the plumber's assistants!
ReplyDeleteWell they are trying to help! He probably needs that weight to keep him from sliding out from under the cabinet! Have a great day Sandie!
ReplyDeleteWow, this MUST have been his favorite thing to do! And something about these pictures of him...do you notice it? He is looking more like a young man and not as young...wonder if it is the no glasses, I don't know. I have a few pictures of Anne Marie that she looks way older than she really is. And in those pictures you can almost see what she will look like as an adult. I sense the same here with your grandson.
ReplyDeleteAndy is a fortunate young man!! Great photos, and please keep them coming! Love the laugh - pups are just too cute! The lift - so true!
ReplyDeleteSo sweet... Love the "we're helping" picture!
ReplyDeleteThe pics of your grandson are really cool and definitely should be framed.
ReplyDeleteLove that your grandson swam with manatees! That's awesome for him!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE the laugh...I love dogs!
I love the pictures of your grandson! Thanks for the recipe. I will try it with my grandson.
ReplyDeleteLove the dogs hanging out with the plumber. :)
ReplyDeleteHe looks so happy your GS - it's a joy to see him ^_^
ReplyDeleteI would make that muffin for breakfast...except I don't use my microwave...I've not done so for about 8 years...it sits out in the back room with a stack of pencil-filled jars sitting on it. Graphite, water-colour pencils and coloured pencils.
ReplyDeleteA very tempting recipe, however!
what an experience, amazing, he will never forget this!
ReplyDeleteI tied a muffin in the cup, made with coconut flour and I didn't like it, maybe this one would be better,
I've heard of cake in a mug, but not that specific one.
ReplyDeleteLove the photos of your grandson!!!
now swimming with manatees sounds exciting.
ReplyDeleteI like those cute helpers...lol
Interesting recipe. I will have to give it a try. Sounds low carb too.
ReplyDeleteLove the dogs helping under the counter!
I did a Google search and a few recipes came up that were the same as yours so I pinned them!
ReplyDeletewhen people don't love money things will be better
ReplyDeleteI'd say this is one vacation your grandson is always going to remember. Not everyone gets a kiss from a Manatee. Hope your Thursday has been a good one...Not over yet but it is evening as I post this.
ReplyDeleteLove the read and also that is great the swimming with the manatees. I would scrunch up a little if it had been sharks!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great statement in your 'Lift', sooooo true.
Hugs from near Dayton, Ohio.
The Laugh gets me everytime! Now who wouldn't want to kiss a Manatee, they are so sweet. Ann
ReplyDeleteLOL! Yup ~ pets are very helpful when it comes to renovations. :)
ReplyDeleteWIshing you a happy weekend!
xo Catherine
Hi Sandie....I think it's absolutely great that GS has had SO MANY terrific experiences in his little life. May there be many more in the year to come. Susan
ReplyDeleteManatee kisses - nothing better!
ReplyDeleteLove the little plumber's helpers!
Happy Thursday, Mrs. Chatty!!
That's such a good picture of your grandson! I'm glad he had fun. Love the "we're helping"! Haha. My kitty helps me like that, too.
ReplyDeleteCute picture:) YUM to the recipe and the love vs power quote is RIGHT ON! Have a blessed day dear Sandie, HUGS!
ReplyDeleteTHIS IS AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI remember walking along the inlet once and seeing a manatee approaching. Everyone who saw it, myself included, starting walking along the boardwalk next to it until we couldn't see him anymore. It was awesome just seeing that, I can't even imagine how awesome it must have been being right there with it. :) Very cool pic/memories. :)
The recipe sounds nice and different, I like the dogs, yes I do like dogs as long as they are not living in my house............lol
ReplyDeleteHi Sandie .. how wonderful to see the swim with Manatees and that kiss! He looks so happy ...
ReplyDeleteLove the saying though .. wish the love of power would recede ...
Cheers Hilary
