Peach Muffins

I seem to like peaches, because first came the scones, and now these muffins. Or maybe I just seem to keep peaches around. They remind me of a big tree on a hot day with lemonade and a blanket, trying to stay cool. What I love about these muffins are that they easy, quick, and full of fruit flavor.  You can use fresh or frozen, which makes things even better, because if you are anything like me, you always have some fruit hiding in the freezer.  So make these this weekend, or one evening, take them to work and show your co-workers how much you rock. Like they didn’t already know that!
