I'll make you Banana Pancakes

"We've got everything we need right here and everything we need is enough"  Jack Johnson


Almost every Sunday my husband gets up early and makes Buttermilk Banana Pancakes for the family.  


I'm not talking about pancakes from a box. He actually pulls out the recipe book and makes them from scratch. 


I watch, and belt out the lyrics to Jack Johnson's "Banana Pancakes" as he cooks.


I love Sundays!


This past Sunday we tried something a little different.  


I found a wonderful product called Grainstorm which we had to try.  You see, Christmas shopping proves difficult for me some years, as inevitably I find something that I love (and must have), or a new, intriguing product I need to sample.
Who doesn't love getting packages in the mail?!

This year was no different.  


Now, never having tried the product before, my husband {Mike} and I decided we had better try the pancake mix first to make sure we weren't giving away a terrible product.
I love the packaging... So simple yet beautiful!
The perfect stocking stuffer!
We tried the buttermilk pancake recipe found on their
website
I made these, that's why they aren't round and pretty
Were these ever good!


Let me just say that my husband is not a fan of whole wheat/whole grain anything.  He will eat it, but will always say "it just isn't white bread".  


So, I was a little concerned with his reaction to these.


I watched as he took his first bite.  His eyebrows raised.  He took another bite... and I thought... well, here it comes.. the white bread comment...  but he surprised me with a "Wow! Now those are way better than I had imagined them to be".  


That was pretty much is way of saying they were awesome!


So for those of you at Grainstorm my hats off to you as Mike even went as far as saying we should be buying more!
