It's a great thing, to live near your best friends, isn't it? I live near two of my very dearest friends, Eryne and Neil. They're married, and we've all known each other since high school. I can proudly say that I'm equally good friends with them both, and never ever feel like a third wheel when it's just the three of us hanging out. I think that's the sign of a really good friendship.
Anyway, they're really good at getting everyone together for holiday celebrations, and this weekend's no different. Tomorrow morning, 6 or 7 of us will be going to Eryne and Neil's place for an Easter Brunch pot luck. I couldn't be more excited; spending Thanksgiving with them was the best ever.
My contribution tomorrow will be cottage cheese muffins. Yes, you heard me right, cottage cheese muffins. I first heard of these from a local Jewish bakery here in Vancouver, called "Solly's Bagels". They're delicious, and I'm pretty much obsessed with them. When I decided these were what I was bringing with me to the pot luck tomorrow, I went on an online hunt for their recipe. And guess what I found? Another girl in Vancouver had had the same thought I did, and she re-created them in her kitchen and posted the recipe online! Oh happy days!
And I must say....they turned out pretty good. I just finished baking them. I highly recommend checking out the recipe! Thank you, Tora!
Some changes I would make to the recipe next time: I'd get rid of the cornmeal, and I'd add some sugar, maybe 1/4 cup.
I just read this, but at the time you wrote it did not really know of your blog. It is so nice to see everything from your side!
