Funny Name: Don't Talk to Me in the Morning Edition

I know the name from Make-a-Mix Cookery (Karine Eliason, Nevada Harwood, and Madeline Westover, 1978) is supposed to evoke granola...


...but Gruffins just sound like muffins you don't want to talk to before they've had their first cup of coffee.

  2. All I can think of when I see this name is, "you gruffians get out of my kitchen"!

    1. Nothing will make them run. Your only hope is that they decide to go on their own.
