Sounds tasty! I always like asparagus for this season.

I have to bring muffins to an Easter brunch - would you be willing to
share the recipe? It sounds particularly good.

Thanks,

Maybe this shot of Jerusalem will help your mind rewrap itself:

I have no idea where this recipe came from so I can't attribute. The
addition that I made is a couple of tablespoons of finely diced pecans
in the topping....that got the crunch going big time. Actually, this
looks like my banana bread recipe but adapted to muffin pans.

Banana Crumb Muffins

breads, breakfast, brunch

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 bananas, mashed
3/4 cup white sugar
1 egg, lightly beaten
1/3 cup butter, melted
1/3 cup packed brown sugar
Crumb Topping:
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 tablespoon butter

Preheat oven to 375F .

Lightly grease 10 muffin cups, or line with muffin papers.

In a large bowl, mix together 1 1/2 cups flour, baking soda, baking
powder and salt. In another bowl, beat together bananas, sugar, egg
and melted butter.

Stir the banana mixture into the flour mixture just until moistened.
Spoon batter into prepared muffin cups.


In a small bowl, mix together brown sugar, 2 tablespoons flour and
cinnamon. Cut in 1 tablespoon butter until mixture resembles coarse
cornmeal. Sprinkle topping over muffins.

Bake in preheated oven for 18 to 20 minutes, until a toothpick
inserted into center of a muffin comes out clean.

Yield: 10 servings

Yes...they even celebrate Palm Sunday in Mexico City...and Hawaii!!
The Palm added a nice touch and I would like to be sitting under that
palm.

I had a very easy time celebrating 2004 Christmas Vacation poolside
in Aruba. It was 85 and the tropical breezes were wonderful.

You're kidding me! Seriously?? <grin>

I guess I was taken aback by the lighted path to the table -- the
candlelights don't jibe with the time of day that brunch is offered.

Look outside your perimeter....not everyone lives in your time zone! A
candle lit occasion can happen at any moment!!

Wishing you and yours the best!

But brunch is still noonish, isn't it? The world around?

Thanks for that!

The breakfast I'm planning for Palm Sunday is extremely austere by
comparison to Mr. Bill's. Apparently, Mr. Bill has forgotten that Palm
Sunday is part of Lent.

Using the picture you provided, the menu I'm planning is:

But the Sundays in Lent are not included in the 40 days, so he's home free,
