An Ode to Crystallized Ginger

Ever since my little stint with nausea last week, I've been sucking on candied ginger like it was...well...candy.  :)  I love the kick-you-in-the-pants sweet-and-spicy flavor of it.  I like how I feel after eating even just a small piece.  I crave it at least three times a day and, lucky me, we found it at an organic/whole foods store (Sunspot) that's basically within walking distance from our apartment.  If I ever find myself with an unallocated $4 to splurge, you'll know where to find me.

So obsessed am I that I was thinking the other day how yummy this stuff would be in a muffin.  I googled it.  Sad news: someone else thought of it first, so I get no bragging rights.  Glad news: it's so good I don't care. AND there are chocolate chips involved.


Tell me that doesn't look delicious!

Our cute cupcake tree gets its first use!

Seriously, my whole house smells SO delicious.  Paul and I aren't huge cake or cupcake people (although I DO love decorating them), but maybe if I start looking for more surprisingly good muffin recipes we can look like normal people for our birthdays (have our "cake" and eat it, too)!

Go HERE for the full recipe and more mouth-watering pictures!
