Looking for something to bake for someone who is mourning? MORNING GLORY MUFFINS are wholesome, freeze exceptionally well, and are ideal for someone who may only have the energy to eat something simple with coffee or tea. They provide nourishment that can be enjoyed one at a time over many days.

Unlike dinner, muffins quietly say, "I'm thinking of you every morning." They don't require a plate, utensils, or even much appetite. Someone grieving can grab one with a cup of coffee or tea, and that's often enough.

When someone is grieving, even deciding what to eat can feel overwhelming.

One of the greatest gifts you can give isn't finding the perfect words—it's simply showing up with dinner.
