I got together with Jill (the bizarro one, in a good way) & Erin on Tuesday night for a pancake fest + movie. The Lemon-Ricotta pancakes we made were yummy & light. We served them with fresh raspberries & syrup (next time I'd try creme fraiche or powdered sugar), & I loved their subtly sweet lemony flavor. They made me miss my mom's buttermilk pancakes, though. I don't think that I ever saw a box of Bisquick growing up, & my mom's pancakes (with huckleberries, during the summers at Priest Lake, or blueberries when there was a huckleberry shortage) really should win awards. I'm making them for breakfast very soon. With her syrup. Yum.
We saw He's Just Not That Into You after our breakfast-for-dinner. While the film had its funny moments (girls are oftentimes ridiculous in their dating habits & interactions with each other - it portrayed this wonderfully), it sort of made me... sad. I give it one slightly hesitating thumb up, one thumb down. That's only possible because I say so.
We went to an Upper East Side diner afterwards for some hot chocolate & french fries (a lovely combination if I do say so myself). I didn't take a photo because I'm on a self imposed hot chocolate photo ban. Because really, hot chocolate is one of my very favorite things, but it's sort of lame to post photos of it every other day.

I made those this week too and served with raspberries and powdered sugar- loved them.
The pancakes were delish, thanks for sharing the recipe. And also, thank you for clarifying the bizzaro Jill comment. I almost thought I was getting dissed again on your blog :)
Oh my gosh. I can't wait to make those! They look so tasty.
I want to try the combo of hot chocolate + french fries. Yum.
they really are so good. I keep coming back to them. (We've always done berry syrup but last night I just did a good maple and it was delicious.) Especially with the ham. [We eat mostly fruits/veggies/grains but do have chicken or pork.. and SOMETIMES beef dishes maybe 3 times a week.]
i would agree with your film review. i liked some parts, and others made me feel bad. 50/50 for me. the pancakes and other foods did not disappoint, however. pancakes and i rarely disagree with one another.
Those pancakes sound SO good! Would you share the recipe?!
All of the links are there, Erica (in the bolded green text). Enjoy! :)
