Years ago I had a  friend surprise me by bringing me blueberry muffins for the 4th of July.  

The 4th of July is not your typical gift giving holiday, but I was thrilled and I have never forgotten this fun 4th of July treat.  This year I wanted to surprise some of my friends with this fun tradition.  I printed off the 

gift tag, made the muffins and delivered the treats.
