Blueberry Muffins in the morning...

Here it is! My kitchen!! I just had to take a picture so you could see my working space. I do have covers that I put over the sinks but that really doesn't work too well when you need to use the sink. Yesterday, I went with daughter, Julie and granddaughter, Kennedy to the movies. We saw Julie & Julia. The movie about Julie who writes a blog about creating all the recipes in the Julia Child cookbook. The movie was funny at times but a little slow at other times. I enjoyed it but did not rush home to debone a duck...I picked up a pizza! Now here it is 7:30 the next morning and I just baked 2 dozen blueberry muffins. I also cooked the potatoes and eggs for a potato salad I'm taking to the lodge later today. I discovered that I have 3 muffin pans in the RV. Surprise. One for regular small muffins, one for large muffins and one for making muffin top muffins. Doesn't everyone have those pans in their kitchen? Why, you ask does someone who lives in such a small space do such things. I guess because I can. I feel if I keep doing these things it helps keep me from getting too "old". When we retired our dream was to travel in the RV but I couldn't see me giving up cooking just because I was in the RV. Cooking has always been something I really enjoyed. That doesn't mean that I cook every meal. Heavens no! When we travel, we like to try the local cuisine. As you travel around the United States the food is amazing. Sweet corn in Iowa, Lobster in Maine, cajun in Louisiana, pizza in Illinois, etc. You get the picture. That's about all for today but I would like to share my recipe for my muffins...

Blueberry Muffins

1/2 cup milk

1 1/2 cups flour, plus 1 tablespoon

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 cup cooking oil (vegetable)

1/2 cup sugar

1 egg

2 teaspoons baking powder

1/2 teaspoon vanilla

1/2 teaspoon lemon juice

1 cup fresh blueberries

Do not use a mixer...hand stir!

Sift flour, sugar, salt and baking powder. Beat egg slightly into milk; add vanilla. Create a well in the center of the flour mixture. Add milk/egg mixture. Add oil and lemon juice. Stir just until moist...batter will be lumpy. Carefully fold in blueberries. Fill muffin pans about 3/4 full. Bake at 400 degrees for 20 to 25 minutes. This makes 12 regular muffins or 6 large muffins.
