Abby's Story:
This is what Abby decided to make for her 4H baking project.  She wanted to make muffins using white chocolate chips.  So, Trish found this recipe online.  Abby did everything herself.  She got all the bowls down.  Found all the ingredients in the kitchen.  Measured everything out herself.  Mixed it all together.  Scooped the muffin mix into the muffin pans and baked them.  These turned out incredibly well.  Way to go Abby!!
