When the students in my class asked me what I wanted for Christmas, I had the same answer every time.
“There is no such thing as too many Starbucks cards”
They’re pretty good listeners.
I took my cards this morning (really, I only needed one) and went to Starbucks for a grande latte before running to the bank and the post office.
Then came home to whip up a batch of pancakes…it had been too long. I’ve used this recipe for years, and it has never failed me.
Topped with plain yogurt and fig spread.
Latte and kitty in the background.
I had one more after this, sandwiched with crunchy pb…
Now I’m full of coffee and pancakes, and feeling blissful.
As content as I am, I’m actually, I’m feeling a little under the weather this morning, so I plan on taking it easy all day. Errands are done, pancakes have been eaten, and coffee is in hand.
Happy Saturday.
I hope you feel better! Holy free Starbuck heaven!
I am chuckling about your cat on the table! I had always let my cat do this (countertops too) and never thought a thing about it. When my husband and I were first living together it drove him crazy – but one thing he has learned is that you can’t break a cat of a habit! – great xmas presents by the way- the way to a teacher’s heart!
I never think about how impolite it is to have a cat on the table until we have company…which is kind of embarrassing. But you’re right, you can’t really train a cat NOT to do something.
Oh no! I gave you my sickness! I hope you feel better soon!
And I agree – there really is not such thing as too many starbucks card. BEST. GIFT. EVERRRR.
I want those pancakes. I always want everything you eat so I guess I can just stop saying that
we should switch lives for a day because I also want EVERYTHING you eat!
Your pile of Starbucks gift cards look like mine! My friends and family know me too well: I got a ton of GCs, a coffee grinder and a milk frother.
…and those pancakes look yummy!
Ohmigosh I would be so excited to get all of those giftcards!!!
pancakes totally make the BEST breakfast!!
haha love all the starbucks giftcards
I also have a pancake recipe that I never shy from…..why mess with perfection?
Feel better soon!
I think pancakes need to make an appearance in my breakfast one of these days.
Your kiddos are awesome! For me, it’s iTune cards. I’d be happy to wake up and fine a plateful of iTune cards on my table.
I hope you feel better. More pancakes should help.
Try the barefoot comtessa’s sour cream pancakes sometime they’re lemony, tangy, and delicious!
Yummy looking pancakes!! Feel better soon!!
Ahahahahaha I love all the Starbucks cards!! I hope they help you feel better and you’re right as rain very soon.
That is the best idea! You can never have to many free lattes !
Love the blog girl…cant wait to read more!
Okay…you have to tell my what brand of fig spread you use! I am drooling….
jealousss about those starbucks cards! not sure if you know, but you can register them online so you don’t lose out on precious cups of java in case the cards get lost
glad you liked the mexico recap; i wish vacations lasted foreverrrr
awe.. love the kitty photo
happy weekend, katie!
Awww… teacher gift cards. Starbucks are the best in my book too! Love the perfect photo of your pancakes, latte, and kitty.
Haha, aw I’m jealous of your Starbucks cards- I didn’t get any this year, boo!
You read my mind. Leftover, afternoon pancakes with peanut butter is almost better than the pancakes for breakfast. Love the kitty in the background!
