This is currently day two of my sugar and dairy cleanse.

It’s tough, I’m not going to lie. This was my first real meal and it was…good. The pancakes are great, they aren’t soft and fluffy but they are dense and hearty, they have that nice whole wheat flavor and leave you feeling good. The peanut butter though…I wish I didn’t put that on the pancakes. It is unsweetened, natural peanut butter and it is absolutely disgusting. I’m not a big fan of peanut butter to begin with, unless it’s loaded up with sugar, so I don’t know what made me think that I’d like it this way. If you like unsweetened peanut butter or just want to add regular peanut butter, go for it, it’ll make these pancakes even better!

On top of that, I don’t really like bananas either. I should have started off slower, but I haven’t given up yet and I’m doing much better! Now, more about these pancakes.

With Valentine’s Day right around the corner, I knew I had to make some red velvet. I just made Valentine’s Day Funetti Cupcakes and already have an amazing Red Velvet Cupcake recipe so I did some digging through my bookmarks and some scrounging around on some other food blogs and found red velvet doughnuts.

I don’t like to drink soy milk. I just don’t. But I had some leftover after I made these sparkled ginger cookies and wanted to use it up, so you guys are getting this great orange scone recipe.

They are light and fluffy, dry in all the right ways, and complimented with a sweet orange glaze. Bonus: they’re vegan.

Breakfast is my favorite meal. Sadly, I’m never up early enough to actually make it, let alone eat it. I’m wake up an hour before class, take a quick shower, and rush out the door to the subway so I can make it to class about five minutes before it starts.

I like being early for things, even if it’s five minutes. I hate being the guy that’s late, the guy that is holding everyone up, etc. I also like to sleep in though, and believe me when I tell you I can sleep in, I woke up at 7pm yesterday.

Thankfully, waking up at 7pm and staying up all night gave me plenty of time to make breakfast before class!

I’m proud of myself. I’m terrible at flipping pancakes, I really am. It was a miracle that today I was able to successfully flip EVERY PANCAKE! I used a small pan so I was only doing one pancake at a time and it went swimmingly.

So..I think you should join me. Flip some pancakes for breakfast. They are easy to make and a perfect start to a good day.
