Care Package

written by Parita Leave a Comment

Is there an “awesome older sister of the year” award?  If so, I think I should get it!  I’m just kidding…well, kinda!  Winking smile

I am a pretty awesome sister though.  Why?  Because I just spent about 1.5 hours making these fun goodies to send to my little sister in a care package…

The chocolatey muffins you see above are the Chocolate-Zucchini muffins that were featured on  Katie’s blog today.  And the non-chocolately ones are my muffin version of Katie’s Baked Cookie Dough Oatmeal, which I am totally obsessed with.  My sister is one lucky lady!  Both of these muffins are incredibly delicious and surprisingly healthy!

Along with muffins, she will also be getting some granola…

Care Pack 013

I found the recipe for this yummy treat on Courtney’s blog.  It’s a Honey Maple granola, and the only thing I did differently was use sliced almonds in place of walnuts (because I didn’t have any). 

So, yeah…sister of the year anyone!?  Nah, I don’t want an award…I really don’t.  I love my sister to bits and pieces, and I would do absolutely anything for her.  She’s my best friend, confidant, and mini me!  The whole purpose behind this care package is to make sure she has lots of healthy treats to keep her fueled through finals.  That’s what big sisters are for after all!

      Well, I had a zucchini sitting around that I wanted to use, so I figured, why not! Thanks for sharing such wonderful recipes. They turned out amazing!

    I live with my sister so were pretty close although living together hadn’t always been the best thing. But you definitely get the award!

    I have a little brother (we are 6 years apart) and if he ever hears that I call him little, he will kill me. I love him and would do anything for him.

    Aww what a sweet sister you are!

    I do have an older half sister and we aren’t close at all…it makes me sad at times, but she’s just not healthy to have in my life.

    You are such a sweet older sister! She’s going to LOVE all these treats.

    I have a younger sister and we’re really close too. She’s my best friend! 😀

      Thanks, Courtney! I saved a bit for myself too. It paired up so well with some Greek yogurt – yum!
