the pancake event

a few weeks ago, my friend kd made pancakes using this recipe from  
smitten kitchen. 

she was smitten indeed + would not stop talking about it!

then my friend s stumbled upon this fantastic tumblr 

- completely dedicated to pancakes!

so it was decided that we simply needed to whip up some 

pancake-with-heart-shaped-bananas friday evening. 

it ended up snowing heaps  so it was the perfect evening to snuggle up

and eat pancakes drenched in maple syrup. mmm.

 documentation of the pancake event:

it took us a long time to figure out how to cut the heart-shaped-bananas.

{it sounds easy right?}

i was quick to suggest a google search,

but my friends were convinced we could do without.

after a few disastrous attempts, my friends conceded 

and we found some helpful hints at this blog

the finished product!

 

the set-up!

{oh my gosh. just looking at the picture is making me hungry!}

 

me: vodka + sprite in one hand,
a forkful of the failed banana heart attempts in the other...

after stuffing ourselves silly with the fabulous pancakes,

we braved the snow and checked out a local show.

aren't my friends simply the best??
