Orange Cinnamon Streusel Muffins

This day.. is NOT what's up. And also- I'm having surgery tomorrow morning at 8:00 am. Only a minor surgery though, not to worry. My landlord brought me a big bag of oranges today "to stay healthy.." SO I've decided to bury my sorrows of this craptastic day in some delicious Orange Cinnamon Streusel Muffins. I made these last weekend for Ryan and Emery's bake sale and they were a hit.

First, mix together the self rising flour and sugar.

In a separate bowl, mix together oil, oj, buttermilk, vanilla, and eggs. Then mix everything together. Lumpies are fine.

Fill muffin cups halfway with mix. In a small bowl, mix together brown sugar and cinnamon. Put a 1/2 tsp. of this into each muffin cup. Then pour over remaining batter filling the cups 3/4 of the way.

Now mix remaining flour, sugar, cinnamon, and butter. Sprinkle this on top of the muffins.

Bake 'em and...
