Pink Pancakes…

Wine Wisdom thoughts from the desk of Wine Glass Girl

  I was extremely exhausted the other day and when dinner time came around my husband asked what we were having for dinner…

 … for the 1st time in 5 years, I had to say to him…

Uh….” I was thinking about cooking breakfast for dinner”

I used to cook breakfast for dinner in my past life but it hadn’t happened in my new life with this #2 husband.

I was almost afraid for the words to finish…because I have spoiled my family with home cooked meals ever since I moved into their lives 5 years ago.

But the idea went over well and my husband actually decided to cook the breakfast for dinner meal.

My husband is known as “The Pancake King“, when we go camping.

 So he decided he was going tocook the pancakes…
He ran out to the grocery store and came back with a few items which I assumed were going to be used for cooking his pancakes.

 So, I sat my retired myself for the evening, on the couch and let him have the kitchen.

 He didnt understand why the pancake batter was so runny!

~~
It wasn’t long before I noticed the sound of the over beating of the pancake batter…
 but of course, I kept my mouth shut.

Its kind of a rule…that we have, when he cooks, I dont tell him what to do and when I cook he doesnt tell me what to do.
Well, something must have gone wrong and he asked for my help.

 

 My sassy self of course already knew that he had mixed

 

the batter too long!

So, as I entered the kitchen to see how I could help, I noticed the pancake batter was PINK!
Next to the batter was a bottle of Nestle Strawberry syrup…
My husband wanted to surprise me with pink pancakes!
Ok….everybody….say awe!!!!!
Well, I later found out that, it was his sons, that had requested pink pancakes for dinner.

So…awe went the idea that he made the pink pancakes for moi!

I’ve been creative in the past with making Mickey Mouse Pancakes and putting bananas and chocolate chips in the pancake mix.
But PINK pancakes?
I think the batter didn’t come out as it normally would because of two things, the over beating of the pancake mix and the strawberry syrup.
Anyways, they were really good and made me think of putting up different ideas to put PINK in our lives to support Breast Care Awareness!

The Day after I had my pink pancakes I found this cool website and the young lady who is the creator has come up with a awesome pink recipe for Breast Care awareness month. So go by and visit and bookmark her page for future creative recipes.
