I still had strawberries and blueberries left from my yummy shortcake several days ago, so I wanted to use them up this morning. I took advantage of the cooler temperatures this morning and made some muffins.

I ended up making a dozen strawberry muffins, then made another dozen with both strawberries and blueberries. Yum - are they good! My husband was happy to take several with his lunch today, after we each ate two of them for breakfast.

This isn't the best picture, and they tasted better than they look.

Do you make muffins from scratch? From a mix? Buy them at the bakery?

This morning for me I am in a hurry. Coffee, raisins, and a bagel with cream cheese. Not the best, but better than skipping. Yours sounds better.

I LOVE bagels and cream cheese! Oh, there are definitely worse things you could have. Raisins aren't bad for you either.

we usually buy muffins at the grocery but i'd love to make one from scratch so i can "customize" it ^_^

anyway, those sound yummy and all though that might be the best picture of what you made, i still think they're great! it does make me hungry!


myLot reputation of 90/100. Ldyjarhead (5167)   ranked 47 out of 4,075 in eating  2 years ago


Definitely try making some of your own. These didn't take but maybe 5 minutes to whip up.

I'm going to have to think of other variations to try too. Maybe dollops of cream cheese in the strawberry? Hmmm ....

I had a cup of coffee and a cup of strawberry frosted mini wheats .... Yummy!


myLot reputation of 90/100. Ldyjarhead (5167)   ranked 47 out of 4,075 in eating  2 years ago


I love mini wheats but I've never tried the strawberry. I may have to look for those the next trip to the grocery store.

i usually buy those little packages of mix & then i always add yummy stuff like fruit, nuts, whatever my pea brain comes up with. have a good day.


myLot reputation of 90/100. Ldyjarhead (5167)   ranked 47 out of 4,075 in eating  2 years ago


I haven't made muffins in so long, I forgot how easy they were to throw together. I'm going to have to do it more often, for sure.

Pea brain? I don't think so! (unless you're thinking of putting your peas in a muffin)


myLot reputation of 94/100. ANTIQUELADY (12489)   ranked 8 out of 4,075 in eating  2 years ago

thanks but you just don't know me too well. peas, huh? now what kind would be good in a muffin...lol.

Your muffins look great. Yes, I've done homemade in the past but more recently I just buy them from the bakery. My store has an incredible bakery with jumbo gourmet muffins and I can never choose between the orange-pineapple, pina colada, and pistachio. happy

Breakfast? Wow, that was so long ago, it taxes my brain... oh yeah, I had french toast and maple sausage. blush


myLot reputation of 90/100. Ldyjarhead (5167)   ranked 47 out of 4,075 in eating  2 years ago


Oh yum, I haven't made French Toast in a while either. Now that the mornings are cooler I think I'll start making bread again. Thick slabs of homemade bread makes the best French Toast!


myLot reputation of 98/100. katiedoubleu (2953)   ranked 71 out of 4,075 in eating  2 years ago

Sure does make the best! I just had a reg'lar ol' loaf of Italian bread today but I've had it with homemade and it's incredible.

Cooler mornings? Send it this way! I'll not be seeing that until sometime in mid to late September.

I made scrambled eggs & blueberry pancakes. they were yummy! My son ate a lot this morning too so it must've been good. lol. He's a picky eater. He asked for seconds.


myLot reputation of 90/100. Ldyjarhead (5167)   ranked 47 out of 4,075 in eating  2 years ago


Mmmm, sounds good. I do have a handful of blueberries left so I think I'll make pancakes with those for tomorrow. Even if we don't eat them, they will freeze well.

This morning for breakfast I had a bowl of Cheeseburger soup that was leftover from last night with a butter and egg roll. My kids both had butter and eggs rolls with butter on them and some bacon. My daughter also had some of my soup.

When I make my muffins they are from scratch about half the time. The rest of the time I use a mix.


myLot reputation of 90/100. Ldyjarhead (5167)   ranked 47 out of 4,075 in eating  2 years ago


I've never heard of cheeseburger soup. It sounds interesting!

MMMM i love muffins. We usually make them from scratch except for bran muffins those we make from a package. I love bran muffins, blueberry muffins and strawberry muffins. I eat bran muffins quite often for breakfast and take them to work for lunch. I've never boughten muffins in the store or a bakery to take home. I have eaten tim horton's muffins.


myLot reputation of 90/100. Ldyjarhead (5167)   ranked 47 out of 4,075 in eating  2 years ago


We have Tim Horton's here but I've never been (I only moved here a year ago). From what I've heard, it probably would not be a good idea if I did go, because I love those big specialty muffins.


myLot reputation of 99/100. saundyl (4454)   ranked 75 out of 4,075 in eating  2 years ago

i love Tim Horton's BUT I'm very glad the nearest one is over an hour away because i would go there a lot and it wouldn't be good for me!

myLot reputation of 90/100. Ldyjarhead (5167)   ranked 47 out of 4,075 in eating  2 years ago


These really were good and I'm glad I thought to make them. I've popped some of them in the freezer so they'll be just like fresh the next time I want to indulge.

oh that is great be good this winter.
