We admit it. Our morning cup of coffee, (or two), plays a huge role in getting out of bed in the morning. Simply put, we look forward to it as a very pleasurable ritual for starting our day.

 IN THIS ISSUE, we're brewing up a better cup of coffee and pairing it with some scrumptious muffins for a satisfying breakfast. You'll find a classic Lemon-Poppy Seed Muffin, seasonally perfect Pumpkin Muffins (with Cream Cheese Frosting, of course), and streusel-topped Banana Muffins.
