Pistachio Muffin

A nostalgic breakfast treat

Occasional indulgence

of unnatural green;

not my usual fare.

But soft, sweet, comforting,

aroma like Nonna’s house

at Easter time

 

Coffee and pistachio muffin,

a bittersweet

morning treat

Author's Note

Another aroma that brings me back to my childhood...

Oh this is sweeter than you know, that was my sisters favorite...I'd bake her a pistachio cake for every birthday. Thanks for the reminisces Rita.

A lot of people have never heard of pistachio cake - a shame for them! Glad this brought a good memory for you - thanks, Frieda

Oh too bad for them, they don't know what they're missing, my pleasure Rita.

I've never tasted pistachio muffins. They sound...interesting.
Thanks for sharing this glimpse into your childhood.
I enjoyed it very much.
And now, I will have to find some pistachio muffins...

[Rita L. Sev]

A good Italian bakery should have them. I enjoy them not as much for the taste (which is good) as for the instant nostalgia I get when I break one open and inhale... Thanks for reading, Angel!
