Blueberry Muffins

Wow, that serious post was up for a week... Basically, I'm still trying to figure out what content is "appropriate" or not. I know, I know, it's the internet, everything is appropriate. But I want my posts to be interesting! relevent! witty! profound! Ye-eah, time to get over myself.

So I baked blueberry muffins this morning - from scratch! I'd like you to be impressed, but it's ok if you're not. I used real (frozen) blueberries and yogurt, as described in this recipe. e

I was so proud of myself, I took pictures!

This is the bottom of the bowl, with some batter scrapings. I know, it's kind of random. But when I finished filling the muffin tins, I thought this looked pretty, so I got out my camera. Now I wish I had taken a picture of the batter before I spooned it into the tins (it looked cool too). But I didn't think of it, so oh well. Maybe next time, or maybe the image will just live on in my memory alone.

Here's the finished product while they were cooling. As you can see, they are not the traditional golden brown you expect from muffins. That's what happens when you use thawing blueberries - their juice stains everything. I think the berries wouldn't have stained the dough as much if they had actually been frozen. I bought them about 45 minutes prior, so they spent most of that time not in a freezer. In case you don't know, blueberries thaw very quickly.

And these last few just look cool, in my [humble] opinion.
