Sleep Over Pancakes

Full throttle into summer, we’re beginning to notice the longer days, lingering mornings and wafts of Coppertone mingled with honeysuckle and Husband’s roses in full bloom gently flanking the backyard watering hole.

Unstructured days soothe our souls as our shoulders fall from our ears releasing the regiment of routine. A welcomed season, indeed.

We bolted for summer as soon as the last award was handed, barely waiting for the bell, hardly remembering stuffed, threadbare backpacks which, I believe, are still tossed in the back of the minivan.

Summer requires adjustment. Relinquishing tightly held schedules and routine is a form of surrender. I am not innately good at surrender and find myself resisting the slow not to mention the laundry, dishes and mess that numerous Littles leave in the wake of their freedom.

We broke routine by heading to The Lakehouse. This place always aides the transition to sabbath. Mornings by the lake afford the luxury of time to read heady titles such as 101 Things To Do with Bacon. Why I resist such gifts is really beyond me.

A week into summer, Littlest and I made Sleep Over Pancakes this morning. We dubbed them such because summer is a perfect time for coveted sleep overs with friends and cousins. And, these pancakes are most definitely sleep over worthy. We added a bit too much cinnamon to this particular batch, a result of tired eyes and failure to measure. Littlest mentioned the pancakes were spicy. Nothing a little syrup and fresh blueberries couldn’t cure.

    These look great! I came over from Beauty and Bedlam and wanted to say thanks for posting the overnight oatmeal. I’ll be trying that very soon.

Meet Kristin

Welcome! I'm so glad you're here.

I'm on a mission to love my neighbors. I put an ordinary picnic table in my front yard, painted it turquoise and invited neighbors, friends, and even strangers to hang out and do life together at the Turquoise Table®.

I hope you'll join us!
