This is a book I read about 40 years ago.
The girl lives in NYC or some other metropolis.
They live near the "El", so they can't hear each other when the trains go by.
Her father is a taxi driver, and has a bad heart.
The girl likes to write, and enters a contest to win money to help her father have a vacation.
The subject of the contest is a muffin mix.
She writes a limerick about having baked muffins even though it was in the heat of summer.
Any ideas?

If she lived near the El, she was in Chicago - I don't think the train system is called that anywhere else. Don't know anything else, though. (It's short for Elevated Railway).
