If you go down the stairs today, you’re sure of a big surprise…
That’s the way the Teddy Bears have their pic-nic!
It seems cannibalistic, but I assured the bears that this guy was just for play.
Matt made a giant Kodiak cake…
And mine turned into a bear with a bowtie – completely by accident!
Spread with some nut butters, banana, sprinkles and a choco chip face!
Beaker, Bocker and Churton LOVED them! I enjoyed eating them too (there was also pumpkin and butterscotch chips in the batter!) but would you believe that this was TOO sweet for me?! It left me overwhelmed in the palate.
It’s lovely out in the woods today..

March 8, 2011 at 9:38 amThese pancakes are so cute!! You guys must be feeling very artistic this morning. I had a pretty sturdy breakfast but the photos are making me hungry all over again!
Beth @ Beth's Journey to Thin says
March 8, 2011 at 9:40 amHahah those pancakes are adorable. i can’t believe that was by accident!!
Mom says
March 8, 2011 at 9:42 amSo glad the bears are getting a special pancake on Pancake Tuesday!
Melissa @ HerGreenLife says
March 8, 2011 at 9:44 amMmm, I started my morning with a chocolate topped buckwheat pancake. Definitely a great way to “face” the day, though now I’m ready for breakfast #2, muesli with blueberries 🙂
Jill E. says
March 8, 2011 at 9:45 amawwwww this is to cute. that pancake is the best ever.
Sarena (The Non-Dairy Queen) says
March 8, 2011 at 9:45 amI scammed my husband into having pancakes for dinner last week for National Pancake day…I don’t think he will all for it again. These look like a cute/festive way to start the day!
Johanna B says
March 8, 2011 at 9:47 amAdorable pancake bear.
Ash @ Good Taste Healthy Me says
March 8, 2011 at 9:48 amThat pretty much looks amazing. Chocolate and peanut butter? Holla! Best flavor combo…at least sweetness-wise.

Ann @ Day By Day says
March 8, 2011 at 10:10 amI love the bow tie! We used to always make Mickey Mouse pancakes (does everyone do that?) with two small pancakes as the “ears.” I had Kodiak cakes for breakfast yesterday. I can’t get over how good they are. I keep forgetting to add pumpkin!

Baking N Books says
March 8, 2011 at 11:24 amBears got good taste.
I was wondering if you find pancakes are a sweeter meal or not? I love them but sometimes they sit heavy – could be all the syrup 😉

Lauren @ Lettuce Eat Cake says
March 8, 2011 at 12:05 pmKath, you’re always bringing up childhood songs I haven’t heard in decades–I love it! I agree with you on things being too sweet at times. Since I cut out artificial sweeteners and cut back on sugar, I’m amazed how often I can go without it.
[email protected] says
March 8, 2011 at 12:12 pmAdorable! My mom would make me yogurt faces… she’d cover a plate with yogurt and make a face out of sliced up fruit… I always loved that!
Tiff says
March 8, 2011 at 12:20 pmLove your posts about the bears. Those pancakes look really good!
Namaste Gurl says
March 8, 2011 at 12:30 pmI’ve never tried kodiak cakes– are they whole grain and unprocessed? I always just make my own pancake batter, but there’s not always time for that- that’s why I make them so rarely!
KathEats says
March 8, 2011 at 1:20 pmThey are whole grain – and super fluffy! The only ‘con’ might be that they contain powdered milk and egg whites, but I still see those as real food.
chelsey @ clean eating chelsey says
March 8, 2011 at 12:32 pmWhat a cute breakfast! Is there a story behind the bears?

Annette @ EnjoyYourHealthyLife says
March 8, 2011 at 1:17 pmsometimes I can’t handle too sweet in the mornin’ either….but that does look tasty 🙂
Kristen says
March 8, 2011 at 1:21 pmI instantly started singing that song! It’s one of my favorites from my childhood and reminds me of my wonderful childhood friends growing up that I am still lucky to be best friends with! I’m thinking I need to get my hands on some Kodiak cakes soon!!!
Maryann (The Balanced Bean) says
