Blueberry Cheesecake Muffins

I am in love with these Blueberry Cheesecake muffins. They are so delicious, I just...can't. And at two net carbs each, they are a Keto dream. They go well with whatever you're having for breakfast, and they are SO good.
My advice? Make them the day before and eat them cold, out of the fridge. It's like eating legit Blueberry Cheesecake. I'm in heaven! 
Recipe is here.
Enjoy!

Sometimes Basic is Good.

Times have been a little crazy, lately, no joke. With a worldwide pandemic, we've all been home and my kids are doing school online and my hubby is working from home in the front office (usually my office, but he's temporarily taken it hostage), and our world has changed. We are, essentially, Back to Basics. I've been finding that using basic white for breakfast in the mornings seems apropos, and it's calming and soothing. 
In today's climate, routine is a good thing. I still have my quiet breakfast in the sunny corner of the breakfast room, and it is rejuvenating. My whiteware of choice is Fiesta White. I love Fiesta. I have lots of colors, but white is my fave. It's a classic look. Simple. Clean. Not fussy or over the top, like a lot of my china patterns. And it's solid crockery. I love it. Sometimes, simplicity is a good thing.
Be safe, everyone.
