Blueberry Muffins

Muffins are fabulous foods.  They're perfect for grab-and-go mornings or just a lazy Saturday when you can sit and enjoy one with a hot cup of tea (or coffee, if that's more your style). 

Reasons why I love muffins:

1. They're technically not cupcakes, but you can fool yourself into thinking they are.
2.  Because they're not cupcakes, you can justify eating two without too much guilt.
3.  They are so versatile!  Savory, sweet, hardy, light, however you want to spin it, a muffin can handle it!

I could go on, but lets just get to the recipe already, sheesh.

Double Chocolate Muffins

Ooooohhh Maaannnn...
That's all I have to say.

That, and it kinda makes me think of UFOs....

Anyone?

...just me?

...nevermind.

Pumpkin Cream Cheese Muffins with Pecan Struesel

I woke up with a cold today :(  My kids dragged me out of bed at 7:27 asking for breakfast...I guess they deserve to eat.  So I poured them some cereal and thought about the tasks of the day...

there was laundry....................nah

oh, and my kitchen needs to be mopped!........................nah

the toilets are looking pretty bad.............................definately not.

So what am I willing to spend my limited energy on?  Then Julia says, "Mommy, what kind of muffins can you make?"

Without thinking too hard about it, I respond, "Pumpkin."  Well, then.  I guess its settled.  I'm making muffins.
