Blueberry Muffins Two Ways — Beginner and Expert
Lately, as part of an effort to increase our budget for Summer travel, my sweetheart and I have been forgoing restaurant breakfast and brunch on weekends in favor of making our own. Last Sunday, we made his favorite breakfast tart, but this week, I'll be taking advantage of the heaps of blueberries at the farmers market with home-baked berry muffins. I'll either make a traditional muffin recipe or mash blueberries up and include them in the batter for enhanced color and flavor.
My Plan for a Simple, Last Minute Brunch
A couple of weeks ago, I hosted a last minute brunch. All of the food was made either the evening before or the morning of the brunch. The easy menu featured something for everyone, with dishes that were both vegetarian and meat friendly.
52 Weeks of Baking: Versatile Muffins
Resolutions are hard to keep, but I'm trying really hard to stick to my "bake something new every week" one. It almost didn't happen this week, but somehow I mustered up the energy (okay actually, I sobered up, we had a work happy hour and let's just say I drank a bit more than I should have...) and whipped up some muffins last night. Why muffins?

Recipe Review: Joy Bauer's Blueberry Banana Muffins
I love baking, and while I do my best to lighten up many of the sweet nothings I regularly make, there is a such a thing as going too healthy. When I read the recipe for Joy Bauer's blueberry banana muffins, I was stoked because I had three past-their-prime bananas in my fridge waiting to be incorporated into something tasty. When I read the ingredients, including whole wheat flour and oat bran, I should have known that my muffins would not look like the magazine photo.

Do Your Kids Indulge in Sweets More Over the Summer?
Think twice before letting your lil ones indulge in their favorite snacks this Summer. Sunny days spent outdoors often lead families to the ice cream truck for respite from the heat and humidity, but those little treats add up. According to WebMD, without the structure of school programs, many tots don't get the physical activity they need to burn off the fat and calories their snacks pack in.
Antioxidant Alert: Blueberries
I love to talk about food, and this means my girls are forced to listen to me extol the virtues of eating a rainbow.
When we list all the foods and colors and arrive at blue the only food we can come up with is blueberries. Which is fine with us, because we all love them.
Blueberries: In Season and So Good For You
What is not to love about the blueberry? Low in calories and high in antioxidants, blueberries definitely fall into the super food category.
Blueberries are high in antioxidant phytonutrients called anthocyanidins.
Review: Jelly Belly Collection by Demeter, Part I
After I introduced you guys to the Jelly Belly Collection by Demeter Fragrance Library, the perfumer was sweet enough to send me some samples of the six scents, which I've been playing around with for a few weeks. Overall, I think Demeter did a great job on this collection. Each scent is designed to mimic a Jelly Belly flavor recipe, wherein several bean flavors are combined to make a new combination — e.g., blueberry plus buttered popcorn equals Blueberry Muffin.
