♦♪♪......on BLUEBERRY HILL ♫♪♪
I just love trying new mixes and then sharing my findings with YOU....
I am well aware that a lot of us don't have time to make all the goodies from SCRATCH
and I am on a mission to find the BEST of the BEST in cookie mixes, cake mixes
and today.....BLUEBERRY MUFFIN MIX
SIMPLE MORNINGS
from DUNCAN HINES
It has real WILD MAINE BLUEBERRIES
in the box....
I love this photo of rinsing the berries......:>)
Let's see....all you need is water, oil and an egg.....
I always add a teaspoon of pure Vanilla flavoring to most everything I cook.
had some really CUTE muffin papers ♥
and I meant to buy some.....
Forgot all about it so had to use just the plain white and silver ones.
ham slices.....goes GREAT with Blueberry muffins...
well, actually..................
HAM goes with everything, I think.....
I had to put these back into the oven for a few minutes to get them browner...
ahhhh, now......just right.
Blueberry muffins......
a candle......
and blue flowers....
WHAT a way to start the day...:)
I even had a little tiny BLUEBERRY candle to go on our breakfast tray.....
pretty cool, hu ?
That's the little
VINTAGE sliver spreader that KATHY stamped and sent me.
I use it all the time....♥
Both Mr. Sweet and I decided we would have these tasty muffins again and again.
I'll buy more boxes of them and keep them in the freezer.
Then when we get a "wild hair for some wild blueberry" muffins, I can have them on the
breakfast table in no time at all....
and next time, I hope to have some of the cute cupcake papers like these of
KATHY'S.
Aren't they adorable...?....and doesn't she have them displayed in the cutest way !!
Kathy has a new camera and she has some really good photos already and more to follow as she learns the tricks of the trade.
(her photos of her LEMON COOKIES makes ya reach out to get one).........
When you stop by and tell her hello would you kindly tell her HEY from bj ? Thanks....

My next thoughts right after I read your title was "On Blueberry Hill!"
ReplyDeleteBlueberry muffins are soooo sweet and delicious! I love em' and they love me!! he,he!!

You are right we eat ham with every thing. I have some in the freezer from the holidays I am whipping out for soups. The muffins are looking good. hugs♥Olive
ReplyDeleteThose look wonderful. I wish I was sitting across the table from you enjoying their delciiousness! I hope you have a great night- xo Diana
ReplyDeleteBJ, there is NOTHING like Maine blueberries. They just don't compare to the cultivated ones. We pick them every year, and I covet them. I am thrilled that you shared this and I will be hitting the grocery store in ten minutes. LOL Those muffin papers are so sweet on display!
ReplyDeleteDH makes the muffins here, and they are wonderful! We used to take orders for them. So I will not be making muffins. If I do, it will become my job, and I am over employed now! :)
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your muffins! You are always making something!
We have a cupboard that ALWAYS has blueberries in it ... ready to use. Your muffins look so yummy.
ReplyDeleteCookie recipe coming u next week for you BJ. You will LOVE it.
Have a beautiful eve ~
TTFN ~

I will have to try these. I love blueberry muffins and a good mix is fine with me.
ReplyDeleteaww BJ.. what memories you brought back. My aunt Flo was born on Jan. 1 and blueberry hill was Their song.
ReplyDeleteso when I clicked on your blog I felt like she'd come for a visit and to let me know she was fine and happy and she and gray were together again and watching out for me from above..
I love blueberry muffins so I'll give these a try..
thank you so much.
I love your sweet little spreader, BJ! Isn't it so cute? I have a flattened vintage spoon that someone gave me & I love it, too. Those muffins look yummy!!
ReplyDeleteYou and Mr. Sweet have the bestest, most sweetest breakfasts! Sometimes mixes are better than scratch ;-) xo
ReplyDeleteOh yum! You just can't go wrong with wild Maine blueberries! Off to visit Kathy...
ReplyDeleteLove blueberry muffins...love you..and love Kathy...
ReplyDeleteNothing says loving like some thing from BJ and Kathy!
I am a mix kind of gal so I will buy this and try it with your endorsement! Love the little butter knife! hugs, Linda
ReplyDeleteYou are amazing bj, you even had a blueberry candle burning at breakfast time! It looks great, I love BB muffins! ;D
ReplyDeleteOK girl friend pass me a muffin..I really LOVE blue berries so much..Hugs and love Sister friend..Gloria
ReplyDeleteI see nothing wrong at all with using mixes because they are so convenient and usually very delicious. Your blueberry muffins look like they would easily prove that. I once showed a cake on my blog made from a mix with my own twist to it and some unnamed person asked why I didn't just make it from scratch with fresh ingredients. I wanted to answer because I didn't want to but I was very Christian like and turned the other cheek. It seems breakfast is a special time of day at your house.--------
ReplyDeleteShannon
Real blueberries would make the mix semi-homade wouldn't it? :>) I am so glad you like the spreader, I hope you smile when you use it my friend, and know that I love you across the miles!
ReplyDelete*Drool* You make me want to try everything you cook, BJ! I bought some sugar cookie mix yesterday, just because you mentioned it & now I'll be on the look out for this blueberry muffin mix. I have blueberries in the freezer from my Dad's bushes, to add to the mix. Thanks for the tip about adding a titch of real vanilla...will try it!
ReplyDeleteHugs,
Rett
Yummmmmmmmmmmmmmmm... :-)
ReplyDeleteYou are so lucky, that Blogger did not install their *new comment thingy* in your blog. I didn't want it, but Blogger installed it anyway.
And now, many Dear Readers can not comment in my blog.
If you still don't know what this is about..... Please look at the TOP of my Sidebar. And click on the link I give, there.
Please and thank you.

Hi bj, I love the packaged blueberry muffins mix. I prefer from scratch too when I have time and in the mood but confess the older I get the less time the better. These are really good and I like you idea to add vanilla. How pretty is that tray, wow you make it so pretty with the candle and flowers. I hope Mr Sweet knows how lucky he is……….Now I know what to do with my pretty paper muffin cups.

Those look totally yummy, and I'm all about saving steps without losing taste. I don't usually have my sound on, but this morning I'll be singing "Blueberry Hill" until I get it out of my system. In my head, I'll sound just like Fats Domino.
ReplyDeleteYour ole romantic you. No wonder you two are so sweet on each other. I love your photos and your stories. I have to look for no sugar added items these days and I get so frustrated makes me want to eat something sweet. Hope you folks are faring better weather wise than us.
ReplyDeleteBlessings

ReplyDeleteONLY you can turn a blueberry muffin mix into a show-stopper of a blog:) Looks yummy! Have a blessed day in your sweet and welcoming home! HUGS!
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely CRAVING muffins now!
ReplyDeleteIf you want to check out new cookbooks, that is fine. In my opinion, all you need to do is what comes naturally. I would enjoy anything you cooked.
ReplyDeleteYou've done it again - made me smile and feel happy as I set out on the day. You are a SUNBEAM, BJ!
ReplyDeleteI like the way those cupcake papers are stored - what a great idea!
