Baking on a Rainy Day

While the rain poured down on Monday, Sophie and I enjoyed a lazy day indoors. We cuddled in bed while watching cartoons, we had a late breakfast in our pajamas and then we did a little baking. Since Sophie's obsession with blueberries and all things blueberry related is still going strong, we found an easy recipe online and whipped up these muffins.

The muffins were amazing and required very few ingredients. You probably have everything you need to make these right now aside from the blueberries. The crumbly, cinnamon top was the best part. Try them immediately!
