whats for breakfast

This morning the sounds of children laughing stirred me from my deep happy sleep, it was 05:45 and "mummy whats for breakfast" came like a hurricane into the room.

I just knew at that point that cereal was not going to make it with my kids. Both were due to be in nursery at 07:45 and so had about an hour and a half to get us ready, fed and out of the door. Pancakes with banana, maple syrup and bacon was the call of the day.

Each portion of 2 fluffy buttermilk pancakes with 2 slices of streaky bacon and half a banana in warmed maply syrup with some crushed walnuts was delightful, gone far to quickly and although this is not the norm on a weekday morning, it is december after all and sure beats oats or cereal and toast as a way to start the day.

Whats for lunch springs to mind already!
