Hella – did you every say that in high school? Am I dating myself here? I hate it when I try and sound cool but it doesn’t quite work.

Happens daily.

I tend to enjoy savory breakfasts like bacon and eggs and potatoes but I get weak in the knees for these blueberries muffins. In fact, these will make everyone in your house weak in the knees. Lets be honest, this recipe is almost like cheating because sugared-up blueberries are amazing all of their own. Put them in a gluten free muffin and they become mind-blowing.
