Berry Blue Pancakes


Blueberry Lane!


I love pancakes, a lot! The great mother/daughter team at Buttercream Lane Margaret and Laura, created some wonderful, quick and easy blueberry pancakes.


I woke up today, dreaming about blueberries and I happen to have a bag of frozen organic ones just waiting to be used.  This recipe goes together so quickly it will be ready before the bacon is cooked. OK, I didn't cook bacon today, but I thought about it! I said NO BACON TODAY, PUT IT BACK!


Yes, I have food talks with myself. I am not ashamed! Today my food talked consisted of no meat today. We will see what happens tomorrow. Baby girl is getting to me with her "veganism" choices. 


I can't eat bacon in my Baby Girl's face, as I mentioned previously, just behind her back. So for today, I eat these yummy blueberry pancakes with hot maple syrup and butter.

Yes, they are delicious, and I hope you enjoy them, as much as Baby Girl and I did.
