  6. Thanks Kelsey!!! I have to admit, my pancakes did not turn out quite as well as yours. They wouldn't set!!! I took pictures, but they ended up in the garbage. I was very sad. The batter was very delicious though - I may or may not have eaten half of it! :)

  7. Breaking out of food ruts is definitely fun. I still eat oats for breakfast every morning, but I remember how nice it was when I finally broke out of the rut that had me sticking to the same add-ins. Variety is the spice of life, after all :)

    And it's so sweet of you to dedicate your post to Chelsea.

  35. I love pecans with pancakes! Such a good combo. Reminds me of my cracker barrel days - I'd get pecan pancakes and pretty much just eat the pancake parts with the pecans in it. I need to grab some more pecans since I polished mine off the last time I made pancakes

    ReplyDelete
  36. Wow, those sound delicious and would be so easy to make! I am definitely going to try them.

    Thanks for your comment; it was really kind. :)
