To Die For Blueberry Muffins
As a blueberry muffin expert, the only thing lacking which is a staple in blueberry muffins is LEMON. Add lemon rind and a little lemon juice to the batter and you will see how the flavor perks up even more. I halfed the streusel topping and added some lemon and it was just enough. Overall this was a very good blueberry muffin recipe.

Romantic Chicken with Artichokes and Mushrooms
Good. Needed to sautee a little minced shallot before adding the mushrooms and artichokes. I also added a little chicken broth. Hint - flour the chicken before sauteeing. The juice/sauce will thicken after adding the chicken back to the pan.

World's Best Oatmeal Cookies
The texture on these were great. The flavor came out more after a few hours. I just thought the crisco made them a bit greasy. I added a bit of cinnamon and nutmeg (that was a plus). I would definitely make them again. I originally needed to find an oatmeal cookie without dairy that my lactose intolerant son can enjoy.....and he has been enjoying these.
