Blueberries and Another Kind of Bomb!

      I woke up this morning just a little under the weather. You know, sore throat, headache, really tired...and since there were no students today at my school, I decided to call in sick.  I hate doing that, I am really conscientious about going to work and usually I will myself to be well, (as well as sending up multiple prayers that I just do not have time to be sick!)  But, I actually called in sick this time and since it has still been chilly here in Phoenix, I decided that I would take a nice soak in the tub.  Luckily I had these!

     That is right!  They are Bath Bombs made by my daughter-in-law, Korina!  I threw this kind in my tub this morning:

      It smelled so good and cleared my head! I felt so much better! Korina makes these bombs with essential oils.  You will love them.  Here is her contact information if you want to order some for yourself:  kdbreynolds20@outlook.com
     Since I was feeling better, I decided that I had better do something with the blueberries I had purchased a few days ago on sale.  
​

     They were some really nice ones! I had thought that I would just can them or make blueberry jam.  But since I am sick, I didn't want to put in that much effort.  So, I just made some delicious blueberry muffins and then froze the rest for a latter time.  Here are the baggies of berries.  I put about a cup of blueberries in each bag because that is how many I put in a recipe of muffins.

Don't forget to label them!

     Here is my quick, delicious blueberry muffin recipe.  

Blueberry Muffins

In a 2 quart mixing bowl, mix together the dry ingredients which include: 1 3/4 c. flour, 1/4 c. sugar, 3/4 tsp. salt, 
2 3/4 tsp. baking powder.  
Melt 1/3 c. butter, add 3/4 c. milk and 1 egg.  Mix these together by hand very well.  
Make a well in the dry ingredients and then pour the liquid into the well. 
Mix everything together by hand until all of the dry ingredients are mixed in.
Fold 1 c. blueberries into the mix.

The batter before blueberries.

blueberries added

      I like to use my cookie scoop to fill the tins.  I usually put about 1 1/2 scoops into a cup.

     You put them in a 400 degree oven for about 23 minutes.  (preheat, I forgot to tell you.) They will come out looking like this.

     Hope you enjoy them! Now I am going to take a nap, and/or read a book.  I am under the weather!
