Treats: Egg Nog Pancakes, originally uploaded by foodietots.

Woke up still feeling sick today and saw this recipe in my Twitter feed, from Sandy of Eat Real (follow her @eat_real) - perfect treat to brighten our morning. The toddler helped me mix the batter and then devoured quite a few of these wonderfully tasty and fluffy pancakes.

(Note: minor alterations to Sandy’s recipe, used 1/2 cup white whole wheat flour and brown sugar in place of regular.)

In honor of Election Day, the toddler and I cooked up some political sugar cookies. Our circus animal cookie cutter set had an elephant but no donkey, so we went with the “O” Obama logo for our Democratic cookies.

VOTE!
