I’m dreaming of blueberry pancakes in the sky…

I made myself ONE blueberry pancake today that was divine. So divine I pictured it floating in the sky with the clouds, other worldly..heavenly ..it was just that good to me. Maybe because I have a slight obsession with blueberry pancakes. Not just regular pancakes, they’re okay and I’ll eat a stack of ’em regardless, but blueberry pancakes, there is something about them I absolutely love! I like warm blueberries that squish in your mouth, and that sweet taste of maple syrup, ahh I love everything about blueberries really. It takes me back to my grandmother’s and her blueberry scones, and her blueberry bushes picking bowls full of them as a kid. It also takes me back to a family road trip to the Texas hill country where my Uncle insisted we try the Bluebonnet Cafe in Marble Falls. I was about 8 or 9? and I don’t really remember any details of that trip except that cafe and those blueberry pancakes. I recently went back to the Bluebonnet Cafe and regretfully (I don’t know why, maybe I was worried that they wouldn’t live up to the 8 year hype since it was 30 years later! and I was feeling bloated…ugh) I didn’t get the blueberry pancakes! I wish I had, but everything there just looked good so I had to try something else. I just won’t wait another 30 years to go back. They sell pies too. Pies! It’s a hopping, nostalgic place.

But as I was dreaming of pancakes in the sky, I remembered that yesterday as I was perusing my photo gallery on my phone, I noticed an alarming amount of photos of blueberry pancakes. I will share them with you. Because you need some pancakes ad nauseam. Especially since you’re all probably dieting, or trying to lose weight, or just staying away from the sugar (yes, that’s why I only had 1 today!)

I think I will start a trend and keep taking pictures of my blueberry pancakes until I have a whole book titled “Blueberry Pancakes are Divine” or “Blueberry Pancakes in the Sky” and have my floating blueberry pancake drawing on the cover. And then I can meet more blueberry pancake aficionados!
