Pancake Perfection

Please indulge me, but I have to brag. I think Andy makes some of the best pancakes in the whole world. Some of the best breakfast food I've eaten, actually. He is a master at scrambled eggs and french toast as well. We didn't eat pancakes much growing up, and maybe it's because, bless her heart, my mom didn't have the gift for fluffy, white orbs of joy. They were more of the limp, burned variety. Every time Andy makes his pancakes I want to melt. Drown them in syrup and I think I've died and gone to heaven.

As for the eggs, he got his inspiration from some we ate while on our honeymoon. We stayed at the Hotel Del Coronado in San Diego and had some amazing eggs at their restaurant overlooking the Pacific Ocean. Maybe the taste was enhanced by the spectacular view. :) He's spent the next seven years perfecting his version, which often include cheese and sliced honey ham .They're the perfect consistency, a yummy blend of savory and sweet.

But I digress... Tonight, while we were eating some of Andy's delicious pancakes, he started asking Ben about some of his favorite things. It was fun to hear what our not-so-little boy thinks.

Favorite color: Purple (I think he gets this from me)

Favorite number: Two (probably because we always ask him how old he is)

Favorite animal: Giraffe

Favorite story: Monsters (That's funny, because he seems to be afraid of them in the middle of the night)

We are having lots of fun watching Ben grow.
