Jacob and his family love spending time in the kitchen together. This Thanksgiving was extra special because his grandmother flew in from Hawaii, and Jacob baked her a batch of his homemade muffins. He starts with the same base recipe and gets creative by adding different fruits or chocolate.
Jacob even shared his trick for finding the sweetest blueberries. He puts them in a cup of water and picks the ones that float for baking. The berries that sink are a little more tart, so he snacks on those while he waits for the muffins to finish. What a fun family moment to kick off the holiday break.
