Corn Dogs Muffins

Don't know why I didn't think of this.  I would use a Jiffy cornbread mix.  (Following oven temp, cooking time, just adding pieces of hot dog to the muffin mix.)  They are inexpensive and so good.  If you are a cornbread connoisseur, Jiffy is a little sweet.  I initially did not prefer the hint of sugar, but I actually might like it more than the savory recipes.  Key word being, "might".  I still haven't decided.

If you want a homemade recipe that will take longer, you can go to the website where the picture is from.  Just click the link above.

2 Ingredient Pumpkin Muffins

from:  picture from Pinterest and recipe from Food.com

(This low calorie, weight watchers recipe varies per website.  I have seen it with the yellow or spice cake mix.  And with our without water.  My thought is that with water it would be more moist and that the spice cake mix would add the spices you'd want.)

Ingredients:

     * 1 box Spice Cake Mix
     * 15 ounce Can of Pumpkin
     * 1 cup Water

Directions:

     * Mix all ingredients in mixer
     * Bake at 350 for 20-25 minutes
    

Leaf Magnets

So, let's be honest for a minute.  Kid's crafts are cute, but after they've been on the fridge a while, they go to the trash or cardboard box for when your child is an adult, who will then choose to throw the craft away.  But, these leafs are so cute, that I'd use them as a fall magnet every year!  Go to the link above to find the full tutorial.
