I make corn muffins because they make me think of my mom.

Mom wasn’t a great cook, and definitely not a baker. She baked exclusively from mixes, with the exception of chocolate chip cookies, which she began baking when she was an empty nester. (She followed the Toll House recipe. Her cookies were great, actually, but that’s another story.)
