Search Blue Muffins for a Long Weekend " Labour Day , also known as Eight Hours Day in Tasmania and May Day in the Northern Territory, commemorates the granting of the eight-hour working day for Australians. It also recognizes workers' contributions towards the nation's economy. It is an annual public holiday and its date varies across the states and territories." Source In reality, Labour Day for most people in Australia just means a long weekend.  Yee-hah!  To commemorate this auspicious occasion (and also because I had most of the afternoon off) I made muffins.  Blueberry ones. Ingredients: (makes 12 medium muffins, 24 mini ones) *Note: I was making this up as I went, so the ingredient amounts are approximate.  They worked, thankfully! 1/2 cup Caster sugar 1.75 cups plain flour 1 tbsp baking powder 2 eggs, slightly whisked already 1/2 cup milk A little under half a stick of butter (110g) -- melted lots of vanilla essence (3-5 spoons) lots of blueberries (fresh/frozen...doesn't matter) Oven: 200C Spray a 12-hole muffin pan with cooking spray. Mix dry ingredients (sugar, flour, baking powder) together in a bowl. Whisk wet ingredients (eggs, milk, butter, essence) together for about a minute or two, then add to dry ingredients. Mix 'em together! Not going to lie...I was quite worried when I took picture 3. It came good by #4 though. *phew* At this stage, you can add the blueberries.  I used frozen ones.  Try not to let the colours run too much.  Blue muffins look
