lol about “the bad guy.” As for the initial apple bar experience, my wife has a similar “food memory”…I had to fight tooth and nail to get burgers back onto the OK list, lol. I’m glad you got past the apple aversion–these muffins look delicious! I’ll have to try this soon–I used to make far too many apple pies, so I know I’d love this.

Good for you! No one should go without apple muffins!

For some reason (probably laziness) I never have a problem eating foods that I have had a bad experience with… probably why I so often eat things that give me allergic reactions (just in case they don’t this time) and end up huffing and puffing an inhaler.

And with your feet out of the covers at night, you’ll be much more capable of kicking the bad guy in his you-know-what’s when he sneaks up!

he he, so funny. I really enjoyed reading your post. I had the same experience with bananas when I was pregnant with my first child. He is now 14 and I have just this past year decided to stop the nonsense and eat them again. Those muffins look yummy! Alexas last blog post..A Nice Fish Swimming in a Sea of Curry

I still practically sleep with all of me under the covers because of the “bad guys” Good to know I am not the only one…

My husband sleeps with his feet sticking out. He can’t sleep if they are covered. I should warn him of the bad guy!!

Good for you for trying something that turned you off for so long! I used to be the same way with sweet potatoes, and then I tried them about a year ago and now I can’t get enough of them.

My big revulsion? Pork fried rice. It was a good while before I was able to enjoy it again. These muffins look delish! Adding it to the growing list of your recipes. Shalees last blog post..A Title Will Be Forthcoming… Later

And they don’t even make you gag — perfect! They sound great! I mean you can’t go wrong with ingredients like apple, brown sugar and cinnamon. Unless you put something strange in…like tuna…ew. Sorry, didn’t mean to put that gag reflex back in gear!

I only feel safe under the covers at night. Even in the summer, I have to have at least a sheet. Everyone knows the monsters can’t get you through the sheet, but if you kick it off, it’s free banquet for the monsters!

Funny how, no matter how grown up we are, we carry some of those deep-seated fears from childhood… Glad you’ve gotten over the apple muffin thing, though. Food memories run deep, too, and apples should always be a good memory!

i can think of nothing worse than developing a distaste for apple treats. well, my hips, thighs, and booty might disagree with that statement, but my palate sure feels that way.
these sound perfect–welcome back to apple love!

I always have to have my entire body within the borders of the bed to be able to properly fall asleep – I’m glad to see I’m not the only one
Those muffins look delicious! I cannot wait to see how you make the bars, too!

What a story! I used to dangle a foot over the edge of the bed, but pulled it in quickly, just in case the monsters got me! It does stick there at the back of the mind though!

My grandma considered that sleeping with your feet uncovered was bad luck and I can't do that even today either (I'm 29), I so feel your pain, lol! I love the idea of the apple pie on-the-go muffins! Clumbsy Cookies last blog post..Cake pans and a Giveaway!
