Pancakes were on my mind all week but I had to wait for the weekend because they’re a bit time consuming to cook. After a few drinks on Saturday night I woke up yesterday morning feeling huuuun-gry! I put a huge pot of coffee on and then whipped up the batter.
Okay, I sorted of cheated a little by using my favourite mix. ;) I always replace the milk with UVAB and use Becel in replace of real butter. For added yumminess, I mixed in 1 cup of blueberries. Totally hit the spot!
Top with Pure Nova Scotia Maple Syrup and you`ve got a little bit of heaven on a plate. I wish I had made more.
Plus some fresh orange juice on the side. YUM. The lovely folks at Tropicana were kind enough to send me a sample of their new Tropicana Essentials with added Calcium & Vitamin. You`ll here more about this later though. 😉 Perfect breakfast food.
I spent the afternoon preparing my parents & brother`s taxes. We had some veggie pizza for lunch but I was fully immersed in tax filing so no pics. I did manage to snap one of the cute shamrock cookie that my Dad got from the local bakery though.
Supper was left over tacos. I had one taco and then a side of taco salad. I finally managed to wrap the tortilla properly too. 😉
The salad consists of a a big handful of baby spinach, a scoop of the spicy xlgb & bean mix, diced tomatos, salsa & and shredded cheese.
Sadly the weekend was very short. I don’t feel like I accomplished very much at all. I did manage to get out for a short run last night but other than that the day wasn’t that productive.
I’m looking forward to to upcoming long Easter weekend, only a few weeks left to go. We have no plans (we’re not religious) but I think I’d like to go somewhere for a big hike and cook a turkey.
Oh, and check out the weather forecast for Hali this week:
That is DOUBLE DIGITS folks!!! Not to mention sunshine!
Happy Monday bloggies. 🙂
