Both of the kids had “testing” today. Boy is testing for his Blue Belt in Taekwondo and Girl has an academic test, so I wanted them both to have a really hearty breakfast. This mix that I found at Central Market fit the bill perfectly. I bought the Gingerbread Pancake mix, too, so we’ll be trying that soon.

The Maple Pumpkin Butter is really good and doesn’t contain high fructose corn syrup (something we try to avoid), but is a more “adult” taste. Girl prefers powdered sugar on her pancakes and Boy just likes plain old (well OK, Grade “A” Organic) maple syrup on his, but I liked the pumpkin butter. I think it would be nice on toast or drizzled (maybe with some toasted pecans?) over cheesecake for a Fall-ish dessert. I am SO ready for Thanksgiving! Planning menus already!
