Road Trip Breakfast
Spring Break is upon us!
Our family took a road tip for our boys’ Spring Break this year. We left the house at 5am and had a 12-hour drive to Sevierville Tennessee for a week.
Additionally, to these Chocolate Chip Muffins, I also made a batch of Blueberry Muffins. With six of us, and an all-day drive, we powdered through these 24 muffins before lunchtime.
While on vacation we saw so many sights and went to so many fun stops. Our favorite was hiking near waterfalls and enjoying the sights near our cabin chalet in the hills near Gatlinburg. And the most amazing part, was we left 30-degree Wisconsin and enjoyed 70’s in Tennessee.
I made a cheesecake for my parents who watched our dog, Lucy, and used leftover filling to make mini-cheesecake bites for our trip as well. They were AMAZING with a dollop of Raspberry Jam from my sister, Jillian, who sent it from Alaska.
We had Alaskan Raspberry jam in Tennessee. And it was glorious.
