Moving to Denver in the 1980s changed all that! I am always looking for ways to experiment with things that I know I would blow up like my mom's favorite cream puffs! A favorite cook book for me always was the Junior League Colorado Cache! The CSU extension office was always a great lifesaver too! It is a nice service.<br />Your muffins look delicious and I am going to have to try them soon!

I have not had great success with high altitude baking but since we try to not eat a lot of carbs in our house anyway, it's not been a big problem for me. <br /><br />But that tip about cooking beans in a pressure cooker -- I did not know about that. My beans cooked from scratch never turn out tender at high altitude, even with much pre-soaking.

I am glad you have the high altitude baking sorted out now.<br /><br />Thanks for the tip about the bookseller. I am always on the look out for good vendors. I often use Half.com. They offer a range of sellers with truly extraordinary prices. One can purchase almost anything there, and I have always been pleased with my transactions.<br /><br />Your muffins look great.

I think my husband would love some for breakfast tomorrow. <br /><br />I lived in Ecuador at 9000 feet for many years. I learned to add a couple more tablespoons of flour and less leavening to my baked goods. After a few years I could make the adjustments automatically to any recipe and I'm sure you'll learn the same thing.
