Hey guys,
Last night we didn’t sleep so well - just adjusting to a new place, new bed, etc. Didn’t help that we had an electrical storm! The sky was really “flashy,” as I put it at 3 AM. If we weren’t so exhausted we would have stayed up and watched it - but we needed sleep!
We woke up around 9:45 AM and set about a leisurely breakfast. The breakfast of choice in Maine was always blueberry pancakes. For a little bit of a healthier twist, I mixed regular pancake batter with 1/2 batter, 1/2 old fashioned oatmeal! I enjoyed to combo of my childhood favorite inspired by my adult nutrition habits.
I made pancakes one at a time, and we sat down to enjoy each one separately after it came off the griddle piping hot. Of course this meant a 1.5 hr breakfast, but who cares? We’re on vacation. Here’s my first blueberry oatmeal pancake with a little syrup on the side:
And my second:
Yum! I feel totally satisfied.
Right now I’m going to make a new playlist for my IPopd, and then do my C25K run. Have a great day!
Ahh, hope you’re able to sleep better tonight - have to be able to enjoy your Friday tomorrow!! :0)
Gorgeous pancakes!!
Yay for running on vacation! It’s the ultimate way to exercise and enjoy the scenery
YUMMMMYY~ I am a big fan of pancakes and waffles. -lol-
Hope you have a good sleep tonight.
Yum! I love blueberry pancakes and you’re so right about having to have them in Maine. I think that’s where I’ve eaten most of mine! Seeing you guys relaxing on vacation makes me very excited about our week off in August - my boyfriend and I are staying at my parents’ and going to the beach. Totally low key and quiet.
1.5 hour breakfast…how luxurious.
Re: the grocery store yesterday, I totally know how you feel. I’m going home this weekend and 2 things I look forward to are Target and monster grocery stores…oh yeah, I guess seeing my family should count as a 3rd
Hope you had a good run!
Running on the beach/vacation is so fun because there’s new sights! Hope you enjoyed it!
