SATURDAY MORNING PANCAKES: The Ultimate Memory Maker
“ We do not remember days, we remember moments. ”
Simple moments have a way of opening our hearts to joy- something we desperately need during our current Covid culture.
And although curating meaningful moments might sound exhausting, it can be the spark we need to make it through another Zoom-filled day. A moment shared in nature, an unexpected movie marathon or a spontaneous dance party in the kitchen are little things that make us feel engaged and connected.
Here’s a little list of possibilities ....
CREATE A WEEKLY RITUAL
Make Sunday Morning ‘Pancake Morning’. Keep it fresh each week by changing the shape of the cakes and toppings. Tiny, silver-dollar-sized flapjacks with chocolate chips, heart-shaped cakes with fresh raspberries or buttery, syrup-soaked hotcakes that fill the plate.
EMBRACE NATURE
There’s nothing like nature to fully engage the senses. Grab a loved one and enjoy the glow of a glorious sunset. The fresh air and simple beauty of the evening sky are gentle reminders that nothing can exist on its own.
BAKE YOUR SIGNATURE CAKE
Maybe it’s your grandmother’s raspberry sponge cake recipe. Or your favorite lemon tart. A sweet treat is sure to bring a bright spot to your day.
TEMPT THE TASTE BUDS
Take your taste buds on a mini-vacation and experiment with an empirical fruit sampler. Try loquats, jackfruit, or the cucamelons. It’s quite the memory maker – you’ll never forget the time, place and people who shared in this unique, sensory experience.
