Fruit Water

Fruit water is delicious, healthy and very easy to make.

What you'll need:

A pitcher of water- I filter my water with a Britta system and pour it into another pitcher for storage.

Fruit- I chose an orange a lemon and a lime. Any fruit can be used as well as herbs like rosemary, basil and mint. Cucumbers can be used as well as an appetite suppressant.

How to:

Slice your fruit thinly. Place fruit in water. You may or may not want to stir or muddle the fruit. The more the fruit is muddled the more fruit flavor will be released.

Let fruit sit before drinking for a minimum of 2 hours. I let my pitcher sit in the fridge over night and drink it the next day.

Personally I would discard fruit water after a maximum of 48 hours. Do not reuse fruit.

Enjoy!

Breakfast at 2PM!

Google I woke up a little late this afternoon after a night out drinking with some friends. We laughed hard, drank much and spoke until the wee hours of the early morning. So when I woke up I decided to make pancakes to soak up all the liquid in my system!

I planned on making a bunch of them which is why I used two pans. I work for the rest of the week and I'll probably want more pancakes! I stashed the rest in the fridge so I can eat them for breakfast or a late night snack later in the week!

Here's my banana pancake! I have to say this was a first for me. I've cooked chocolate chip pancakes before but I've never done fruit. I didn't take into account the weight of the bananas when I flipped it over so it sort of fell apart and folded in on it self. I only lost one banana though! I was able to cook the flip side and still enjoy it's yummy goodness so it wasn't a complete banana pancake fail!

This is my golden brown blueberry pancake. I have to say that the combination of these two tastes were just what I needed when I woke up! It was almost like eating blue berry banana pie!

What kind of pancakes do you like to make? Do you have any crazy pancake recipes to share?
