Lemon Blueberry Muffins Recipe

When I was in high school, I had a close group of friends who always hung out together. As groups of friends go, we weren’t always all the best of friends — there were ebbs and flows, just like any relationship. But one thing was certain: when we got together, we all had a ton [...]

Yesterday, it seemed like it went from relatively warm to downright chilly in no time flat. It’s no wonder people say if you don’t like the weather here, wait five minutes — that is just how it is at this time of year in New England. And if you are unprepared, you can find yourself [...]

Lime and Coconut Muffins

Posted on May 19, 2009 - Filed Under Breakfasts, muffins | 7 Comments

I’ve been going crazy with zests and fresh citrus in my cooking lately. It’s just imparts such vibrant flavor. Whatever it is that you are making becomes more alive with the simple addition of little scrapes of peels.
Really, it’s hard to believe that I was so resistant to using zest until recently. And why? Honestly, [...]

So. It’s been a few days. This whole cookbook writing sure makes it hard to keep on top of everything. But the stress is worth it, even if it means I don’t post every single day. But I am working on balancing everything so I can get back to nearly daily posts.

On a cold, snowy day, there is nothing better than curling up with a good book, a cup of hot tea, and a warm muffin or scone. I would love to do that today, but alas have to head off to work. If you are luckier than I though, consider raspberry white chocolate muffins or [...]

I started this post more days ago then I want to admit. But believe me, it’s worth the wait.
When I made these muffins, they met with a reaction I didn’t anticipate: elation. My husband was simply elated when he told me how great my muffins were. How cool is that??? He raved and raved and [...]

The Art of Perfection
