It is Saint Joseph’s Day and it is our first wedding anniversary, and although we have every reason in the world (SO much joy and love, incredible family and friends) to celebrate, our hearts are hurting for dear friends who have lost their wonderful son to a tragic skateboarding accident. The whole thing is so painful and so hard to process, especially on this day of fathers and sons and family… Instead of doing the big, traditional Italian feast day, we are keeping it a quiet one with lots of hugs and tears. My incredibly kind, generous, hard working, sweetly loving husband had one request this morning: muffins. And since there is no better way for me to process heartache and show love, I eagerly went to work on this recipe. It turned out to be too good not to share, so I thought I would put it out here in the hope that it will bring some joy to your day. Our time together is so short: eat the muffins and share the love.
