For as long as I can remember, my godparents have been hosting a pancake breakfast at their house every Saturday morning. Anyone and everyone is invited.
Eat pancakes, drink (really good) coffee, sit on the couches and talk. Kids play on the floor. Someone pulls out the huge chess game.
People come in and out and some stay until late afternoon.
But that's back in our hometown. Our new town is minus a pancake breakfast.
Until tomorrow.
That's right...tomorrow we are hosting our very first, very own Saturday Morning Pancake Breakfast! We've invited the neighbors. I've passed out fliers. It will be Banana Pancakes with homemade pancake syrup, fresh coffee, and orange juice all around.
Maybe everyone will come (eeeek! You know how small my house is). Maybe no one will come. The worst case scenario is that my freezer will be stuffed with a month's worth of pancakes.
Who knows....but I'm excited!

What a cool idea! We usually have a big breakfast on Saturday when Sweetheart is home. Yum! Let us know how it goes!
ReplyDeleteWhatna wonderful idea!! We love hosting but have never thought to do something like this! I'll have to pass the idea along to hubby and see if we can't do something like it soon.
ReplyDeleteI hope you have a good (but not overwhelming) turn out. Sounds like a lot of fun!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea!!

I think this is absolutely marvelous! Seriously, you missed something in your current life that was warm and wonderful and decided to start an old tradition in a new location. I hope your home is full of happiness ... and pancakes... tomorrow morning. I believe that God will use your hospitality in a mighty way.
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by my blog. I'm glad to have come here and will visit awhile. I already see some topics that have me interested...
Such a fun idea! I read about a "pancake breakfast" in Guideposts magazine recently. Love it. :)
ReplyDeleteHow neat! Let us know how it goes!!!
ReplyDeleteAwe - wish I could come. :) I grew up eating homemade pancakes most mornings - especially Saturday mornings (once we were all in school). My daughter now loves the same recipe and variations. Such a great idea and tradition.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE that idea. In fact, I am toying with this idea myself. It's too late for tomorrow, but maybe the following week.... At our house I think instead of pancakes, it would be more along the lines of breakfast tacos.
ReplyDeleteHope to hear how it goes and hope it ends up being a good turn out! :)
ReplyDeleteYour ideas are so inspiring. Can't wait to find out what happens!
ReplyDeleteHope all goes well! I know I've been sort of MIA, but I spent a night catching up with you. It's been super-busy around here, but I finally managed to blog twice this week after a couple weeks of inactivity. Loved the pictures of squishy at 7 months!
ReplyDeleteI can't WAIT to hear how it goes! Or rather, is going, since it's Saturday morning now. :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun idea!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fantastic idea. I'm glad to hear it was a success.
ReplyDeleteSo, how did it go?
