smoothie pancakes
every saturday we make a batch of pancakes - we enjoy them for breakfast and then freeze the leftovers so that we can eat them throughout the week. i don't think we have used the same "recipe" twice. we almost always add pureed fruit and/or veggies to a just-add-water pancake mix. some of our favorites: beets & cantaloupe and carrots & bananas. i have experimented with multi-grain mixes, but they usually don't fly in our house. today we tried something new - and loved it! we decided to call them "smoothie pancakes" because we made the batter in the blender and it looked just like a smoothie. yum.
1 1/2 cups of blueberries (frozen or fresh)
1 - 2 bananas
1 egg
1/3 c milk
1/3 c water
blend in the blender until smooth
add 1 heaping cup of pancake mix
blend until smooth
add water/milk to desired consistency
cook on a griddle as you would normal pancakes.
all measurements are eye-balled!
i'd love to know if you try them and come up with some winning fruit & veggie combinations!

quote of the day
"Even when you are out of sight, I love you."
Lucy's words to me on the way home from church after she learned the story of the Prodigal Son...I hope she remembers that one her whole life.

great cutout cookies
this is about 1/25 of the recipe! we've been cutting out different shapes for over a week...our freezer is full of them!
cute.
i was struck today at how "big" kate is getting...while lucy was napping, kate carried around her babydoll, fed her, dressed her, kissed her, put her to sleep...so sweet.
