So you tell me you liked that brownie recipe. I didn't want you all to think I'm not cooking, now that I'm calling my blog "Cooking on Donmar." I served these delicious muffins with lamb stew. Tasty, tasty. And don't these muffins seem like they must be healthy, what with the fruits and a whole cup of wheat germ?
Someday soon I hope to be able to tell you I prepared edible venison. Yesterday I bought juniper berries at Penzey's - the best purveyor of herbs and spices anywhere, headquartered about a mile from my house. I have venison in my freezer from a local hunter. Tubeworm told me that one needs juniper berries when cooking venison. She's sending me a recipe, but if you have other favorites, send them along. I'll let you know if The Man declares that Venison Is Not Too Funky To Be Eaten. Of course it IS red meat; how funky can that be?
Banana Orange Muffins
1 1/2 c. flour
1/3 c. brown sugar
3 t. baking powder
1/4 t. salt
1 c. wheat germ
2 medium mashed bananas (about 1 c.); lumpy is okay
1/2 c. orange juice
1/4 c. oil
2 eggs
1/2 c. pecans
Mix dry ingredients. Stir in wheat germ. Make a well in the center. In separate bowl, stir together bananas, juice, oil, and eggs. Pour into dry ingredients and stir briefly. Fill 12 greased muffin tins. Bake at 400 degrees for 20 minutes. Cool in pan.

About the venison recipe: there is a little catch, or should I say "a catch with a 22"? - After all, these are hard times!
The recipe applies only to the euonymous-fed deer at my house which you must catch first (lots of them), the ones who grazed every last bit of euonymous off the walls of my house that grew lush and plentiful there last fall and now is decimated to just some sticks.
Once you've got the herd of 12-20, let's meet at Starbucks, bring your purse with those delicious "Banana Orange Muffins"(as you did with the brownies, Hmmmm)...and we'll deal....
