Berry monday: pancakes

August 19, 2013

One of the most common berry pancake seems to be blueberry but with all the berries I had picked I decided to mix it up a bit. I made some vegan pancakes with blueberries and  tayberries mixed in. Making them is easy:

-find your favorite pancake recipe, here is a good fat free vegan one.
-fold in 1 cup of any berry you’d like.
-cook as directed (usually about a 1/4 cup on a hot skillet until lots of bubbles form and then flip and cook for a couple more minutes)
-sprinkle with more berries and serve with maple syrup or maple butter.

I made a vegan chocolate pie based off of this recipe. In the filling mixture I left out the extra sweetener and the cinnamon. This pie is so rich and delicious you only need a very skinny slice to satisfy that sweet tooth.

Walker’s friends

August 14, 2013

I mentioned yesterday that a couple of Walker’s good friends were in town this past weekend. I also posted a pretty silly video of us all while they were here. We didn’t capture a lot of their time here because we were so caught up in the moment. There was one evening where we all went to the park and first picked blackberries and ate them right off the bushes and then we sat on the shore by the water and threw rocks in the air and tried to hit them with other rocks. We did that for quite a while. It was so simple but so much fun and I was glad to have a moment that I couldn’t capture with my phone or camera (I left them at home) so I had to soak up the moment a little bit more with my eyes, my nose, and my hands. It was a good night.

Anyhow here are a few pictures from the weekend during one of the many times we were beer tasting.
