Pancakes make me happy

One of Jay's and my favorite traditions is weekend pancakes. And not just any pancakes. Banana chocolate chip pancakes. The tradition dates back to our earliest dating days, and still reminds me of falling in love with my husband every time we make them together.

Finally feeling settled into the house, we knew this past weekend was the perfect opportunity to break out some yummy Stonewall Kitchen pancake mix we've been meaning to break into for over a year (thank you, Julie!). And, our patience (or busy-ness) was rewarded in spades. Here is evidence of one of our most perfect pancake batches yet:

Possibly the world's most perfect pancake, courtesy of the master -- my husband.

Oh, and I did a bit of baking too.... more to come soon on that!

National Underpants Day!

For those of you who were unaware, today was National Underpants Day!

Jay and I celebrated by meeting my good friend Matt in Northampton, MA, where we found these in a funky store:

Underpants for your hands

Some suggestions for wear...

A few months ago, my brother Brian sent us a link to these, and we thought it was hilarious. So, go check it out and celebrate the day in style!
