An unexpected muffin morning

Saturday mornings are our swimming lessons day.  This means that despite it being Saturday, we are still rushing around to get the usual routine done and off to the pool on time.  This morning however, my snotty 2 year old announced that he is in fact, NOT going swimming. Given the recent fever and the snot of course, I decided to spare the other pool users from Ian's disease and pestulence. So off goes husband with 4 year old and that leaves Ian and I free to bake.  Step one for this project, more coffe of course.

My favorite, favorite morning muffins are my Blueberry Lemon muffins.  They are so, so delicious.  Here is the recipe so you too can enjoy these tomorrow morning.  I swear, you must go out and buy the ingredients if you don't already have them or you will miss out on a little bit of heaven.
