Handfuls of spinach hidden in delicious chocolatey muffins. A perfect way to get your greens in!

Two winters ago a group of us went ice fishing and my son caught a monster fish! Of course my husband insist we mount the thing. So Lucky (the big fish) hangs on my son’s bedroom wall. It’s a beast and it doesn’t match a thing in his room, but he’s happy and my hubby is happy so I suppose I’ll manage.

Lucky has become quite the entertainer while living on my son’s wall! Last Christmas he was wearing a Santa hat. This summer a small plastic baseball hat that my son got a scoop of ice cream in was being proudly worn by the fish. And last night we noticed Lucky was wearing super cool green sunglasses! The mystery designer is my husband, who quietly sneaks in my son’s room when no one is looking. I love that he has fun with my son and his fish!
