Meyer Lemon Poppyseed Muffins

This time tomorrow we’ll know where we’re moving or not moving. Match Day is almost here. My stomach is in knots. Finger nails crooked from biting. And hair messy from lack of care. But messy is cool, right? As soon as we find out the news, we plan on stuffing our faces with croissants from our favorite little bakery down the street. Hopefully in celebration and not in consolation. Monday I’ll be announcing our news in the form of a sweet treat. But if we don’t match, it may look more like coal. Whomp, whomp. 

In the meantime, I have a real sweet treat for you. Meyer Lemon Poppyseed Muffins. Even sweeter, I’m guest posting over at Forgiving Martha! Head on over for the full scoop. And be sure to say hello to Jess. I think we may be long lost sisters.

And 2 final things—
1. Be on the look-out. Sharing is caring has been put into A-C-T-I-O-N. I’d like to introduce you to—Tip of the Week. It’s a tip. Posted weekly. From me or a fellow blogger…
2. Did you catch my interview over at Old Sweet Song? Amy has mad interview skillz.

    Best of luck tomorrow! All fingers and toes are crossed! I will definitely have to try these muffins for my husband – he won’t eat any muffin that has fruit in it, but he may eat these!

    By the way, I just got and iPad2 (I know, welcome to the 21st century!) and I LOVE LOVE LOVE the way your website looks on it. i don’t know if that is something you did on purpose and designed yourself, but it is AWESOME!

      Thanks Jessica! You should definitely sneak them past your husband. He’ll never know. I’m glad to know the blog looks good on an iPad! I’ve been meaning to check it. I guess I owe the good looks to WordPress!

    We’re biting nails here, too!! Selfishly we’re hoping that Will and Meg will be coming back to Virginia so we can DRIVE to visit them!

    I love you and I love your blog. But I have to stop coming over here because it makes me SO FLIPPIN’ HUNGRY. I am dying to make that pesto. How do you feel about jarred roasted red pepps?

      February 23, 2012 at 8:14 pm #

      The feeling is mutual! I’m sorry for making you hungry. I hope this means we can still be friends :) PS—totally down with jarred red peppers. Costco is down the street, so we bought globs of fresh peppers on the cheap.

    I’m sure tomorrow can’t come fast enough for you, my friend-fingers crossed (along with nails, most-likely, being chewed)! These Meyer lemon muffins look great- lemon is probably my favorite dessert flavor, so I’ll have to give these a try. Golden loveliness!

    Good luck on match day! You must be on pins and needles. I’d be self medicating with these muffins haha.
    If you end up in the New England area let me know. I will show you the ropes!!

    : ))
