spiced tumeric oatmeal muffins.

These muffins… Tumeric is my new favorite.  I know everyone is pretty much already obsessed with tumeric, but it took me a little bit to get use to the flavor.  Tumeric is a spice that has many benefits for your body.  It has powerful antioxidants and has anti-inflammatory effects.  All the reason to add it to… everything.
