I try to do what I can to help the economy...:)
Some of the bags I brought in, so I tried out the Abelskiver pan I got yesterday..
I usually am a guest at breakfast, dh makes it every morning, but today I was anxious to try the pan, and I took a recipe off the net...I added chopped apples, and I put apples cooked in a bit of butter and cinnamon over the top.. They were good, and I hope to experiment with them and other uses for the pan..maybe something savory..
The pan I got at WmSonoma outlet...it makes little round ball shaped pancakes, and I guess you can fill them...I didn't get that far yet...
Place mat, reversible Christmas Tree PB..they came to 1.25 each.
I am sure at some point in the next week you will see the other side, but I like checks!
And yes, that is whipped cream on top, not a healthy bfast, well the apples are, but I had whipped cream left from the cake I made the other night to bring to a dinner party...
It was a triple layer devils food, iced with choc, then whipped cream in between each layer, and whipped cream icing...the pics on top I ordered on the net....only had to buy a gross... :) ..so I will have them a while, eternity and beyond...
Hope all of you are enjoying this holiday season..Christmas, Hanukkah, Festivus for the rest of us, or whatever you celebrate...but do celebrate!
A few scenes of the season here...
My Irish Nativity...from Galway?, Dublin? no...TJMAXX but I love the shamrocks on it..
Silent Night Music Box..

Your breakfast looks wonderful. Do the little pancake puffs, puff up while baking? Apple and whip cream topping sounds great too.
ReplyDeleteLove the cake & I hope the car thaws out soon :-) You are the bargain queen.
Yes, Marsha, they puff into little round balls...
ReplyDeleteGreat photos Kathleen - do you fill them after they are cooked? Seems like you should have sprinkled confectioners' sugar on them - lol

ReplyDeleteHi Kathleen,
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting! It's nice to meet another fellow Long Islander... where on the Island do you live? I loved your blog, I am a fan of Williams Sonoma and Sur La Table in Manhasset, have you ever been there? If not, you are in for a real treat. I will add you to my list, and I will be back again. See you for Tablescape Tuesday-- my table is all ready!
Carol
