I haven't had one in a long time, but there shall come a time again soon when I can enjoy them - and my body, too. :)<br /><br />My favorite used to be almond-poppy seed. Yummy!! I used to get them from my favorite German bakery in town that I worked at many summers ago. (Back then, I'd get them for free every day! I'd eat them for breakfast, and for dessert after dinner with my favorite Earl Grey tea. :) My body still handled gluten fairly well then.)<br /><br />I also love zucchini muffins. I think I told you ages ago that I'd translate the German recipe I have for you. At this point, alas, I have no idea where that recipe book is... packed away somewhere in a box with all my other things that are being kept in my friend's garage while I am living in my cute little studio. I tried finding it online, but couldn't. One day, though, I will translate it for you and send it to you! Or, better yet, maybe I'll have a chance to make them for you one day, and we can enjoy them together?! :)<br /><br />hugs to you and much love! Enjoy your summer!<br /><br />~ejEmily Joliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04103507139176115531noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4365057403767674312.post-89122565891613034792009-05-14T00:03:00.000-04:002009-05-14T00:03:00.000-04:00Ai Lu,

It manages to hold up quite well! And I like having the dairy addition, I must admit.Kristinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17208374967597840745noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4365057403767674312.post-15339496816197867532009-05-13T20:45:00.000-04:002009-05-13T20:45:00.000-04:00Hi, Kristina:

I agree that "real" cheese is better, but sometimes I like string cheese for a snack when it's the only thing that the deli has and I'm out and about. On Sunday I had two sticks of string cheese and a banana halfway through a ride, and that made a great snack.Ai Luhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01197869780327408592noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4365057403767674312.post-67175832675984005432009-05-13T13:19:00.000-04:002009-05-13T13:19:00.000-04:00I have to say that I'm not a big fan of the "bars"...I have to say that I'm not a big fan of the "bars", partly because I don't feel like I've really eaten anything, nothing that truly satisfies my hunger and my need to crunch and chew and taste. So, I try to avoid them as much as possible. They are good for long hikes and back-packing, and a quick burst if I'm famished (then I'll eat half of a bar). But I don't like them as a meal supplement, or as part of a meal.<br />I love the idea of "ride-a-muffins". I'm always a sucker for the berry variety.<br />I can't say that my wokouts are very intense these days, but I do like fruit and maybe some cheese and crackers. For me, that's the ideal snack.Kristinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17208374967597840745noreply@blogger.com
