Today is my second born’s 27th birthday.

As I sit here staring at my computer screen I can’t help but wonder where the time has gone. That and Lionel Ritchie on my headset making me feel a bit melancholy.

This little baby boy who was born three weeks early and weighed in at 5 lbs. 11 ounces has grown into a 6 foot tall man who is one of the most handsome men on the planet. 🙂 Smart as can be and continues to amaze me everyday.

He also is one of the healthiest eaters that I know so finding a “treat” for him on his special day can be quite of a challenge to say the least. So here is a muffin that is Caleb (my son) approved and good enough even for a birthday celebration.

Sweetened with bananas, honey and bursting with berries this is great anytime of the day. In the nutrition calculator it does not include the topping which is just a bit of oats, oatmeal flour, cinnamon and a teaspoon of butter that I added for the picture. 🙂 They are just as good without it!

Thank you for reading and have an awesome day!
