An informative article about muffins

I thought this was an informative article about muffins: how they're made and some interesting trivia. Apparently the word muffin is derived from either French or German. It's kind of interesting how many commonplace English words are derived from others.

But I digress:

Lots of pictures too, so there's always the risk of getting hungry while reading. :) A lot of them also double as links to muffin recipes.

  1. The link did not work for me when clicking on it. But I would like to say that I would really like to know what the word muffin is derived from and which language in particular it comes from?

  2. the link's working now. According to the article, it's apparently ambiguous as to where it actually originated from.
