Happy Hour and Dessert in Capitol Hill

  Happy Hour Street Tacos with Carne Asada and a Miami Vice from Poquitos.  Poquitos is located in Capitol Hill and they're serving up authentic Mexican cuisine and cocktails. Their happy hour deal is a good one- during Ocho hour, everything on the happy hour menu is just $8! I went with a Miami Vice, a classic Pina Colada with Strawberry.

Triple Chocolate Muffins for a birthday breakfast

 

                             These Triple Chocolate Muffins make the perfect Birthday breakfast!

Initially I wanted to bake Chocolate Chip Pumpkin Bread but the store was actually out of canned pumpkin. I guess everyone is baking pumpkin desserts right now! Fall is here, after all.

And to make them more moist and soft the recipe also calls for sour cream. I found the recipe on Sally's Baking Addiction. You can find the recipe right here. Now I just have to hope my boys aren't bouncing off the walls after eating these muffins!
