To Die For Blueberry Muffins
These are very tasty muffins! An easy recipe, with a good flavor, plus they come out incredibly moist. I would recommend to cut down on the cinnamon for the topping. I only added 1 tsp, and I believe it was just enough. Any more will mask the other flavor. If you want to omit the topping for a healthier choice, I would add a little more sugar to the general recipe, so it won’t seams as bland. It dose make a rather large amount of topping (enough for about 12 normal muffins). I only made 9 because I wanted a slightly larger muffin. Also, next time I will be sure to add some vanilla or almond extract to bump up the flavor a little. Other than those suggestions, I wouldn’t change a thing. It’s almost impossible to find blueberries where I live, so I used frozen ones and they worked just fine. Thanks for the great recipe!

French Onion Soup Gratinee
I was in France a few weeks ago and while I was there I had French onion soup. This Recipe has almost Exactly the same flavor... Fabulous... The only changes I made was 1 (48 fluid ounce) can BEEF BROTH and 1 (14 ounce) CHICKEN BROTH. Traditionally french onion soups is made with a beef base and is fairly heavy. I also added mozzarella cheese, asiago, and the swiss.. Fantastic Recipe! Defiantly a keeper!
