3/4 cup of friendship

Bake for 6 months slowly raising the temperature and VOILA! You have yourself one genuine husband!
But no, I have an actual recipe that will get you an actual husband.
I have proof.
If you have read the little "bio" towards the bottom of this page you will notice I said that I "wooed Trevor on a popular social media." So here for your viewing pleasure you can read what awkward great flirters we are: (you need to start at the bottom and read up to get it in order.)
Yes that's right, all my single ladies, the recipe to getting yourself a husband is:
BRAN MUFFINS!
Not only is this recipe delicious, it will keep everyone who consumes it "regular."
It's a win, win, win situation.
I have to give credit where credit is due, this is my sister Monica's recipe, whom is a phenomenal cook. I do not joke, she has indeed been asked if she took "cooking classes in heaven." I can't make this stuff up (but apparently the equivalent to Mr. Collins in modern form can, as he used this exceptional pick-up line at a Sunday dinner that included her husband and 5 children. Poor bloke is still the brunt of many Steed jokes today.)

The best part about this recipe is that it makes a ton aaaannnd it's refrigeratable!!!!! Which means I pull the bran muffin mixture out of my fridge each morning, plop them into the muffin tin and in 15 min I have fresh homemade muffins!!!! I can get 12 muffins every morning for about 4-5 mornings. Best breakfast ever.
My batter that I pulled out of the fridge:
Plop.
and done!
And that my friends, is how I got myself the most incredible man I have ever met!
