Mini-Muffins and Munchie Money

I made pulled pork in the slow cooker overnight, and the aromas of barbecue sauce and cooking pork permeated my dreams and woke me several times! It's a strange, strange feeling. 

It was an outside kind of day today, as the littlies were constantly hankering to be outside. So baking moved outside with them. We made savoury mini-muffins for afternoon tea. They're getting pretty good at spooning batter into the muffin cups, although admittedly, our littlest one spends more time licking the spoon or eating batter than actually filling the tray! 

The Annoyed and the Annoyer. This is our everyday.

In a bid to encourage our bigs to practise their times tables, we devised a system for them to earn munchie money (MM) while practising. They'd in turn be able to exchange MMs for snacks. 

I'm sure this will need to be tweaked once our big boy has a go at it with his eagle eyes, but if it doesn't give me a headache first, it should be fun.
