2 ingredients



 Are you asking yourself, then why did she post a picture with 3 ingredients? I'll tell you why,  the original Hungry Girl 
recipe only called for Devil's Food Cake mix and a can of pumpkin
but I was being a rebel and adding white chocolate chips because who doesn't love white chocolate chips mixed into their devil's food and pumpkin muffin! Simple and delicious! Remember a few months ago when Beth started this pumpkin craze, well who knew that you can add a can of pumpkin to anything and it turns out pretty good!
They are not the prettiest looking muffins but do you really care?
Enjoy!

before & after

 Yea! First project of 2012....... done! The table and chairs above were a wedding present from my parents almost 22 years ago (thanks mom & dad). It has served us well! It was a quality piece of furniture just not the most comfortable thing to sit on for any length of time. I knew we would keep the table but it was time for some new chairs.

One evening I was browsing the Pier 1 website and stumbled upon these slipcovers, fell in love and the rest is history! I bought one slipcover,  came home and discovered that all the colors worked perfectly with my kitchen. All the stars must have been aligned properly because I was able to match the Annie Sloan Chalk Paint almost perfectly with the blue in the slipcover. The color is Provence and I love it! I need to find more places to use this color.

Now, just need to scotch guard the fabric chairs so I don't drive my kids crazy about "sticky hands" and decide if I want to distress the legs on the table. Then it's on to the next project!

What is your first project for 2012?
