Pull out your griddle people! National Blueberry Pancake day is January 28th, 2012. Celebrate this sweet holiday with a short stack of “flat tires” as the truckers call them.For centuries, pancakes have been a favorite on the breakfast table and a snack on the go. Besides being warm and tasty, they can be a healthy treat when made with the right ingredients or coupled with super foods like blueberries.
Even Alexander the Great went into battle with crude wheat cakes in his belly. From Ancient Greece to early colonial times, history holds many stories of pancakes sustaining people when they didn't have time to cook.
Today, pancakes are a staple in American life. Think about it, what could be better than a hot cup of coffee, a few crisp pieces of bacon and a short stack of blueberry pancakes on a cold Sunday morning. Ahh... Perfection. Savor the moment.
Watch out though! The boost of energy from such a great breakfast may kick you into overdrive. After all, Monday is less than a day away!
You may begin to think of how much you need to cram into your afternoon to make it through the work week with grace. Last minute tasks at home, preparations for meetings at the office, and a full review of your calendar may be in order. Boy, blueberry pancakes are powerful!
Celebrate National Blueberry Pancake day this year with a pile of “hubcaps”, “flapjacks” or “berry patches” because a little down time packing your body with some wholesome goodness can prepare you for a more productive day!
