Baking in Isolation

Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins

Liam and Levi

With the recent outbreak of Coronavirus forcing us into isolation, it has also brought fourth some great quality times and homemaking activities. Trying to make the most out of what we have during this trying time, I have decided to start a YouTube channel of the kids. Having fun little experiments and exploring and adventuring around our property. I've been putting my camera equipment to good use while my portrait sessions will have to be postponed.

The first video is of the kids making Grandmas favorite banana bread. The kids of course have made a slight variation from nuts to chocolate chips and loaf into muffins. Whichever way you decide you make yours, I hope you enjoy!
