Name: Spicy Pumpkin Nut Muffins
Ingredients: 2 c Flour; 4 ts Baking powder; 1/2 ts Salt; 1/2 ts Each cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves; 1/2 c Shortening; 1 1/3 c Sugar; 2 Eggs; 1 c Cannned pumpkin to which you have added 4 T. milk; 1 c Chopped nuts

Eleven years ago while giving an anesthetic for a ruptured ectopic pregnancy (at two months gestation) I was handed what I believed was the smallest living human ever seen… Within the sac was a tiny human male swimming extremely vigorously in the amniotic fluid . . . This tiny human was perfectly developed, with long, tapering fingers, feet and toes. It was almost transparent, as regards to the skin, and the delicate arteries and veins were prominent to the ends of the fingers. The baby was extremely alive and swam about the sac approximately one time per second, with a natural swimmer's stroke. It is my opinion that if the lawmakers, and people realized that very vigorous life is present it is possible that abortion would be found more objectionable than euthanasia.

INSTRUCTIONS

This is one of the best pumpkin muffin recipes ever! TNT many times. I got
it from the November, 1983 issue of Home Cooking magazine. Believe it or
not, a subscription was only $4.00 a year then! Boy, have things changed.
Mix dry ingredients well. Cream shortening and sugar until smooth, then
beat in eggs. Add dry ingredients to sugar mixture alternating with pumpkin
mixture. Add nuts. Stir only until smooth. Do not beat. Bake at 350* for
20-25 min. Yield 20
Topping if you want: (I always do!)
Mix 4T sugar with 1t. connamon. Sprinkle over top of muffins just before
baking.
