Baking for the littles.


I am the only girl in my family of four. So therefore I get the privilege to bake for the men of my life. 
My most favorite thing to make for these handsome boys is muffins (they think they're cupcakes). 
I found an amazing recipe for Low-fat Cranberry Oatmeal Bars, which are healthy and only 137 calories, not to mention very filling. So what are you waiting for? Get to baking!!
