Charlie Muffin Review

Charlie Muffin
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Charlie Muffin is an experienced, rumpled, and endearing working-class British agent. Charlie irritates his boss and fellow agents with his appearance and accent, yet he always manages to get results. After narrowly escaping death during a border crossing in Berlin, Charlie is convinced that the department has decided he is expendable. Back in London, Charlie finds that two younger agents are now sharing his office while Charlie's desk has been moved to what used to be the secretary's rest room. But the in-experienced upper-class agents who are given preference begin bungling the defection of the head of the KGB, and Charlie finds himself back in action. This amusing spy story is fast-paced and satisfying.

Gloria's Glorious Muffins Review

Gloria's Glorious Muffins
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
It was the first time for me to bake muffins. I used a recipe from some general cook book (I think it was "Better Home something"). Since it was my first time, I strictly followed the instruction. The result was aweful. It tasted like K-Mart's "buy a dozen at 99c and get another dozen free" muffins. My wife said something like "I could eat with help of coffee". Frustrated, I went to Border's Bookstore, and found this book. And I chose one recipe, called "California Style Muffin". Again, I strictly followed the instructions, and the result was: "I have never eaten more delicious and healthier muffins ! I just love my muffins !". Gloria's book starts with the explanations of the equipments, explanations of terminology and ingredients (for example, various kinds of flours). Then some general education of nutrition follows, where she explains why her recipe does not use sugar or salt (in her most of the recipes) and instead uses natural sweeteners (such as apple juice concentrate). Then she explains the general method for muffin specific baking. After that, recipes of many kinds of muffins follow. If you are health-conscious and want good quality muffins, I highly recommend this book. You need to take time to find/prepare appropriate ingredients. It's not hard. Did I say that it was just my 2nd time for muffins ? I used to buy "100% whole wheat muffins" from Randall's Grocery store in Houston. It tastes great and it contained all healthy ingredients except too much sugar. It was too sweet. I was very happy to find this book. And I am happy that I can now bake the muffins that I want (not so sweet, not salty, but good, healthy ingredients). Thanks, Gloria.

Captain Maxi's Secret Island (The Muffin Family Picture Bible) Review

Captain Maxi's Secret Island (The Muffin Family Picture Bible)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
These books were read to me as a child and my children love to hear about the Pippin's and the make-believe land. Each make-believe story is paired with a Bible Story. There are questions at the end of each story to help the parents and children emphasize the point of the story. Wholesome character building stories that your children and you will love. Highly recommended for children ages 3 and up for Family story time before bed.

The Smart Baking Cookbook: Muffins, Cookies, Biscuits and Breads (Jane Kinderlehrer's Smart Food) Review

I've never done this-write a review. But someone gave this book only 2 stars, and that really bothers me. The author's other baking books, now almost impossible to find, were very highly rated, and rightly, and this one is the best of them all-and comprehensive.
Oh, yes, there are a few ingredients you'll need to buy at a health food store. BUT, well worth the trip.
Bake up a batch of her wonderful muffins, and watch your kids devour them as mine did. I made a batch of the apple pecan, by choice, to start my family off on a cross-country trip-they are special.
The cookies are unbelievable. The baked goods too.
There are many ideas for substitutions, and many ideas for those special needs-like diabetes, coronary artery disease, allergies (the wheat-free, egg-free, sugar-free, low-fat, etc.) AND everything not only tastes good, but also is good for you, loaded with nuts, seeds, whole grains, fruits, vegetables....
Easy to follow instructions, flawless recipes. Delicious results, for those of us who don't eat white bread. For those who do, expand your horizons.
Really, this book is a stand out in health-oriented baking-I should know, I've bought them all. I can promise you two things: one, you will not like every recipe, some you won't even try; and two, you will love most of the recipes and find yourself making them again and again.
