Although this is not something we would eat every day…and moms typically wouldn’t offer it to kids regularly for breakfast…a treat every now and then never hurt a belle (or a belle baby).  And…I’m thinking this would make the little ones happy to roll out of bed on the first day of school.  Just sayin’

One lazy summer day, one of our teen belles who loves to bake (and wreck the kitchen…but we digress) got a hankerin’ for blueberry muffins.  She quickly looked up a recipe and came up with one of the best we have ever had!!  So we all win.  She got to bake and make her mess, the family had a belleicious, unexpected treat, and now YOU get to try it too!!

Check out the belleiciousness!!
