Fruity Friday...

The raspberries at one of my favorite grocery stores are on sale, and they taste like I picked them off the vines myself! So I think I'll make these from Smitten Kitchen one of my favorite foodie blogs.


I also saw this recipe on TasteSpotting, and I just happen to have a bunch of banana's on the counter as I type :-)

Truth be told I'm making this beacause earlier this week it was actually SUNNY out, and I was at fore mentioned grocery and bought a pint of "dolce de leche" ice cream. Come on when it's sunny what do you think of ??? Say no more we all know it's ICE CREAM!

Say what you want, but chocolate, caramel, and banana's you know you wish you were at my house, with a big spoon in your hand!

Picture not always so perfect

Soooo since I didn't get a chance to do my Foodie Friday on, a, Friday, I'll do it today!
I'm finding out that Tastespotting is a great place to SEE great looking food but the recipes don't always stack up to the picture. I'd say it's 50/50 though.
First Sunday morning I made these.



They were good but with some tweaking they could be REALLY good. I used 1C. white flour, 1 C. whole wheat. I only added half the sugar and I added 1 T. lemon juice. Next time I would add 4 T. lemon juice. I thought the strawberries might overpower the lemon in the pancakes so I used lemon curd instead. The lemon curd was too much lemon and with just syrup it wasn't lemony enough. We lightly spread lemon curd on the pancakes and then put some syrup on top and then they were pretty darn good.
On Sunday night I made this for supper



And it was Fantastic! My eggs didn't look as nice as the picture but they sure tasted good! And DH went nuts for the crouton's and he normally doesn't like crouton's! Can't wait to make this again!
Of course the lemon drops I made ( hate to waste all that juice from the pancakes!) paired nicely with it!

Guess I'm on a lemon kick.
