Happy Valentine’s Day! Do you have any fun plans today either with friends or your valentine? Bo and I are savoring the long weekend and relaxing this morning at home with The Tudors. We bought Season 1 on Friday night at Best Buy and are enjoying it thus far. We’re both huge history buffs so it’s right up our ally. Keeping up with Henry’s wives is definitely difficult! Later today we’re heading into the city to shop for our Valentine’s Day meal which we’re going to cook together at home. Cooking together is one of our favorite things and since we don’t have work tomorrow we can enjoy a few glasses of wine and hopefully enjoy some more difficult than usual recipes from our favorite cookbook, The Inn at Little Washington. We may even catch a yoga class this afternoon to work out the knots from yesterday’s hilly long run!

After the wonderful night out with friends last night, Bo and I enjoyed a lazy nine hours of sleep! After plenty of sleep we decided that we should test another healthier pancake recipe this morning. Bo requested a recipe that would taste like traditional pancakes but be much healthier. I love using the ingredients we already have on hand versus using a box mix. I don’t think we’ll be buying box mixes anymore! Today’s pancakes turned out absolutely perfect. We enjoyed them with canadian bacon and warm cinnamon maple syrup! Yum!
