* image These past few months have been busy for our family, especially since our oldest joined a local swim team. Between juggling our work schedules and balancing school with practices... we're all pretty wiped out. Although it's a lot of work, I'm looking forward to Thanksgiving. Preparing the holiday meal for our family fills my heart with joy, and I can't wait to get started. To make things easier for me, I don't deviate much from our first Thanksgiving as a family. The dishes I make are familiar ones, and the recipes for them live at my fingertips. Keeping the same menu year after year means I don't have to spend time researching recipes or planning a new one. Here are my tried-and-true Thanksgiving recipes, as well as my prep timeline for the big day!
These tender cornbread muffins have a gentle sweetness that's simply irresistible thanks to a touch of honey... and the batter comes together in no time making these muffins perfect for any day of the week!
For as long as I can remember, my approach to blogging has been to publish content when it seemed most relevant.
Of course, I bet you know what I'm going to say next.
This approach doesn't take reality into account. 😔
Unless I can carve out time to write content well in advance, this just doesn't work.
Something always comes up and causes me to miss my publishing window. So I put the drafts on the back burner and make a vow to be more on top of things the following year.
Again... I'm sure you can figure out how this has been working out for me. 😂
Then I read recently—and I can't remember where—that I should stop doing that. Instead, I should publish the content when I have it and then promote and share it on social media when relevant.
This approach sounds much less stressful to me... and, honestly, totally doable.
Now... if I actually shared this recipe when I finished editing the photos, you would've seen it on the blog a little more than FOUR YEARS ago. In fact, I took these photos right around the time I started experiencing issues with my second pregnancy.
So, okay. Maybe I did have a good reason for delaying the publication of this Honey Cornbread Muffin recipe. But I think waiting four years is a bit excessive. 😂
Let's not wait any longer to share it!
If you've made it this far, then scroll just a bit more for the recipe!
PS. Please enjoy this adorable photo of our then-two-year-old daughter 😍, with that slight curl in her hair, enjoying one of these muffins still warm from the oven.
