Muffin or Barm

[Cellarite]

Urgent bluemoon help needed, I manage some holiday lets and have guests from Canada arriving, when we asked them if they needed anything for their arrival they asked for Tea, bread milk and 'Muffins'. What do we get them ?

They clearly want something with chocolate chips in. They are basically intelligent yanks after all.

That's what my wife reckons, I'm more for getting muffins for toasting?

Then your wife is correct. She deserves someone better than you. She must have the patience of a saint to live with a muffinite.

We have finally decided after consultation she was right and I'm wrong, we will be providing Chocolate muffins.

I suggest you go and sit in a room on your own and think about your behaviour. Mrs Parrott comes out of this sorry state of affairs smelling of roses.

Which is correct.

If however they had requested "English muffins", as any educated dweller of the American continent would, then you would have supplied the delicious round amuse bouche that in England are known simply as muffins.

Which does Pep think it is? I'm willing to accept that as the "final answer."

That's the gamble we are taking, my argument was what if they think we in England know them as just muffins. But then if they knew that they would have know to call them harms , unless of course they were from Rochdale originally and they would have asked for tea cakes, it's a minefield.

St. Muffin is the patron saint of the FOCs in CBL3.
