There's something exciting about getting an email early Sunday morning saying that church is canceled. Maybe it's just because it is different and you can stay in your pajamas all day...I don't know, but we definitely took advantage of the day. I know, Sabbath breakers, right...but in Denver the snow doesn't stay long. It practically melts away the next day, so we just had to go out and play!! First thing we did was eat some amazing Egg Nog Pancakes (recipe below)...they were fabulous (served with pure maple syrup...yum!) Then we had a little gospel lesson. And then snow clothes were piled on and out we went to build a snow-man! We ended the day by going on a little drive with some hot chocolate (in some seriously cute disposable cups) while the boys sat all snuggled up in the back and watched 'Frosty the Snowman.' It was a fun "snowed in" day!
EGG NOG PANCAKES
(recipe courtesy Nigella Lawson)
2 TBL butter
1 1/2 C flour
2 heaping tsp baking powder
1 tsp sugar
Pinch salt
1 1/3 C egg nog (plus a little milk for thinner pancakes)
2 eggs
Melt the butter and set aside to cool slightly.
In a large bowl combine flour, baking powder, sugar and salt. In a separate bowl, beat eggs. Add the egg nog and cooled butter. Pour wet ingredients into the dry and stir just until combined.
Heat a non-stick griddle and cook up those yummy pancakes! Serve with pure maple syrup!
