Lip Gloss for No One

Thats how I know something is super rad in my world: when I am wearing a kick ass lip gloss and no one is home but me and Ellora. In today's case the lip gloss is my fabulous MAC Wonder Woman red-as-frikking-sin-and glossy-as-bleep!!! gloss. I love it, in case you couldn't tell? This mood could possibly be inspired by the delectable breakfast I created earlier. 

Per serving

Buttermilk pancakes; 1 topped with peanut butter and a strawberry banana flower and the other a simple maple syrup and powdered sugar cut into pieces for plating next to a simple strawberry banana fruit salad.

Yummy!!

This was super fun and way easy. Plus it was a brilliant way to use the strawberries that were kinda just not getting eaten anymore-- after 6 pounds of them in 2 weeks I can understand. 

Ellora thoroughly enjoyed her breakfast and ate a good portion of it. Hers were quite a bit smaller and she had been munching on bananas before the pancakes were ready. It was a lot of fun to watch her poke at the bananas and peanut butter on one while being way curious about the syrup on the other one. She seems to like all of the toppings that I included for her. Mama win! 

Today we are going to test out the pool that Andy has been slaving over for 3 weeks. Yes, its an above ground pool with a nifty chlorine/filter system, and it probably didnt need to take 3 weeks. But Andy is a perfectionist and leveled sand and made it all kinds of fancy. So I feel it is my duty to make sure his work is enjoyed. Darn, rough stuff, kids. I actually probably would have done the same thing... further proof that I am waaaaayyyy to much like Andy. 

Later on into the day I jump feet first (haha pool ref!, too much) into the world of scallops. I have a Sav Blanc, fresh garlic and lemon and about a pound of scallops. Hmm...

The explorations will need to be recorded and published upon a victorious meal. However, should disaster present itself instead, the efforts will become confidential... True stuff. 

I am going to add a couple of pictures to existing posts... Ellora is too cute to not post as much as I can.
