This may be sacrilege to english muffin purists, but I eat english
muffins several times a week and I have learned that the only way to
split them evenly is to slice them with a serrated knife.

I am drinking my fourth and last cup of breakfast coffee, black,
strong and hot and eating a toasted English Muffin with cream cheese
and Cherry Amaretto Jam. Before toasting it, I carefully pulled apart
the two halves of the muffin, which resulted in one large half in my
right hand and a mess of crumbs in my left one. (Not all halves are
created equal.) The jam, made and given to me by a dear friend, made
up for all the crumbs, which I ate with a spoon, without toasting
them. (
