Why this blog exists

This blog is meant to promote healthy spiritual hearts, minds, and souls. It’s also to care for the earth God gave us. Now I’m gonna write down each category of the blog and describe it further.

Heart-This portion of the blog will be there to stimulate our growth and a relationship with our God, through Jesus the promised Messiah, with short portions of scripture and comments.

Mind-This portion of the blog will be dedicated to stimulating our minds with poems, witty sayings, and maybe some puzzles.

Soul-This portion of the blog will stimulate healthy eating, with recipes and to introduce people to organic foods and all-natural remedies.

The Earth God Gave Us-This portion of the blog will encourage people to recycle, use more green technologies, and eco-friendly products, because God gave us this earth to take care of it. We need to be careful to worship the creator and not the creation. This will blog will not promote the hugging of trees.

2.3 Soul - Just call me the muffin man

Here’s a recipe I found on AllRecipes.com but tweaked it to make it healthier.
Ingredients:
2 cups all-purpose flour (non-bleached wheat flour)
The equivalent of 1/2 cup sugar (I chose to use agave amaretto syrup)
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 egg
3/4 cup milk (if you substitute all-purpose flour with wheat flour, add additional ¼ cup)
1/3 cup olive oil
1 teaspoon vanilla
(3/4 cup of fruit if wanted)
(1 teaspoon of cinnamon)
In a large bowl combine the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. In a small bowl beat the egg, milk and oil. Pour into the dry ingredients and stir just until moistened. At this point you will add in your flavors (ex. vanilla, cinnamon, fruit etc). Fill greased or paper-lined muffin cups three-fourths full and bake at 400 for 18-20 minutes. This makes one dozen muffins. You can also adapt this for a quick bread. Pour all the batter into a greased loaf pan and bake at 400 for 45-50 minutes.
