Zucchini pineapple muffins ** new and improved**

7/23/11 ****NEW and IMPROVED**** I made these today with a few healthier changes. I used all whole wheat flour, no brown sugar, and butter instead of oil. Not quite as sweet and a little more dense, but still just as good! All of the changes are reflected below!
