Eating and living locally . . . mindfully . . . simply.
A friend of mine has always been crazy about pancake day since she’s from Liberal, Kansas. Sort of the mecca for pancakes. She says “I’ve celebrated in Liberal, of course; Sterling, KS; all over the Twin Cities, MN; Nairobi, Kenya and Arusha, Tanzania. One of these days I hope to hit the motherload and celebrate in Olney, England!” So in honor of Amy, here are 6 pancake recipes.
This recipe from The Simple Art of Eating Well is a snap to throw together and very tasty to boot. If you’re not a fan of cardamom, you can substitute cinnamon.
Believe it or not, I used to subscribe to Eating Well magazine back before I cooked regularly. The exotic ingredients and dishes were fun to read about, but seemed way beyond my capabilities (besides, half the time I had no idea what they were talking about!) So it was kind of funny when I re-subscribed years later, only to discover that what once seemed exotic was now fresh and something I would actually cook. Funny how that happens. But I digress.
I am holding steady, no loss or gain to report. I’ve been slacking off on counting calories and not exercising. Seems to be a common theme among weight loss bloggers–I saw a sign the other day that said “Februdreary.”
Want to know something ironic? On the day that I was going to write about this topic, my car wouldn’t start in the parking lot at work.
This super easy weeknight meal from The Simple Art of EatingWell: 400 Easy Recipes, Tips and Techniques for Delicious, Healthy Meals (EatingWell) is very adaptable.
Anyone else find it ironic that they are celebrating Urban Food Production Day in Bangladesh, whereas in the United States it’s National Peanut Butter Lover’s Day?
