Brunch with added protein

Backyard brunch, Charleston, S.C.

Check out my lush green back yard. I've already bought a bird feeder and am enjoying visiting song birds. I scrubbed out my electric stove (blah...I love gas stoves) and made blueberry pancakes for brunch on Sunday. It was lovely and cool outside.

Zoom in for a close up below and check out the Perry Trucking mug courtesy of my brother Roger. I didn't spot the dark flecks in the maple syrup until after I'd gobbled up my delicious pancakes....yep, floating dead ants. Ooops!

    Opps - do you need a new supply of Maple Syrup for Canada?
    The breakfast looks delicious.

  3. The table and chairs gracing your backyard looks like it will be well-used this summer! Great looking breakfast, even the cholesterol-laden bacon! A few ants won't hurt you...just a tiny bit more protein.

    1. Bacon now and then is a worthwhile treat in my opinion. Gotta have a few slices with pancakes and eggs :)
