I arose this Sunday morning with the notion to bake. Fresh lemon thyme await usage, so I adapted a tried & true blueberry muffin cake recipe to accommodate my lemon thyme. I steeped the lemon thyme in warmed milk, and added the zest of 1 lemon into this butter based batter. The last of my poopy seeds in the cupboard went into the muffin recipe as well. The aroma of lemon filled my home, and awaken my husband. I steeped earl grey tea in my mug while he grinded his coffee beans and proceeded with his coffee ritual. I finished the warm muffin cakes with a lemon juice and powdered sugar glaze before indulging. Now we refrained and saved 10 muffins for my oldest daughter and her family. She just had her 30th birthday, and the kids were under the weather most of the week. We dropped off the goodies after church … Sure hope these lemon muffin cakes brought sunshine to their home …
