Lemon Poppy Seed Muffin Recipe

It was not until I had my first Lemon Poppy Seed Muffin that made me
realize, I like muffins. I love Lemon to the point growing up my mother
would constantly ask the dentist if I had destroyed the enamel on my
teeth from my level of Lemon intake? Alas, Lemon and I are simpatico! These also can be frozen and then you can have a tasty breakfast treat whenever you feel like it.
