BOYSENBERRY BLACK WALNUT MUFFINS! I mean, who doesn’t like a muffin?

I love muffins, and actually used to eat them all the time. However, in my older age I admit that I never eat them. I’m not big on the bakery ones because they are often filled with questionable ingredients, and aren’t the healthiest. I don’t make my own because…I don’t know why. I have no good reason, but after this week’s muffin baking, I just might be changing my tune. These are healthy and tasty, and at Boysenberry Black Walnut, they are my nod to the Northwest.
