Popping Pancakes?

<div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Aloha Sprinklerinos,</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Since reading through your lovely comments about my last pancake post, I thought it would be fun to share a couple more of the cool topping ideas Warburtons suggest on their Wheel of Possibility. Also, we get to eat everything after we photographed it so let's not pretend that's not always a major incentive haha. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">This time Baby Glitter and I made pancakes with chocolate & popping candy and also granola & shaved coconut.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiOYZMMwrcR4L-TILKmHrmKdJ_wrOUYJpRvJhIbx0KVcS_4nVFa9IA4CC99WQasqOtoaGRwH_7Gar5K6U_4LQUX2TtBDny3GwjxfDnhDokOIqTZE2LKLyqJYd6ghspxviFKppEZc3PeIomz/s1600/pancakes8.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiOYZMMwrcR4L-TILKmHrmKdJ_wrOUYJpRvJhIbx0KVcS_4nVFa9IA4CC99WQasqOtoaGRwH_7Gar5K6U_4LQUX2TtBDny3GwjxfDnhDokOIqTZE2LKLyqJYd6ghspxviFKppEZc3PeIomz/s1600/pancakes8.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">I think you can guess which topping's the Little preferred! </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhYHx-klXqzVoqm0RX0h7URdBScmHzX1AHy5Ek71rly5r85s6CZca2cRIj6DMNmYGOZAg4kYH65Anz0XC_lz8qOYjCoeyqVUoGibemBEOEXl9llJZPr5NJN7jg-sj9slIDca0dE5IGcgy1Y/s1600/pancakes+6.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhYHx-klXqzVoqm0RX0h7URdBScmHzX1AHy5Ek71rly5r85s6CZca2cRIj6DMNmYGOZAg4kYH65Anz0XC_lz8qOYjCoeyqVUoGibemBEOEXl9llJZPr5NJN7jg-sj9slIDca0dE5IGcgy1Y/s1600/pancakes+6.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">I really enjoy the idea that you can can swing sweet or savoury directions with this little circley pancakey beauties. It's so nice to be mixing things up a bit more in the mornings and having little chats with Darcy along the way about pouring, mixing, drizzling etc. We don't do a lot of 'kitchen stuff' together so it was a really good opportunity to develop new vocab and experience new tastes (oh how I wish I'd filmed her trying popping candy for the first time!!) without taking up too much time or making much mess. Oh, and need I mention the eating part again?! Win win win.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhpxzRNGTFmFWMyay7pP4a5TLC0qW1DjA-biyAxqYgWgC2XSs4fTdvO2nxGXbvFVWSYDNh3Yugw0ID8fLQROZoLmm4y526O7whVSh4atnD8vvZQd4J7xzZkS_P33YgeRs2xuNXRbFRCmk2h/s1600/pancakes5.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="402" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhpxzRNGTFmFWMyay7pP4a5TLC0qW1DjA-biyAxqYgWgC2XSs4fTdvO2nxGXbvFVWSYDNh3Yugw0ID8fLQROZoLmm4y526O7whVSh4atnD8vvZQd4J7xzZkS_P33YgeRs2xuNXRbFRCmk2h/s1600/pancakes5.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">If you would like some inspired pancake ideas, hot foot it over to the Warburtons Facebook Page <a href="https://www.facebook.com/Warburtons" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">HERE</a> and see what they have to offer. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">What do you think?

Happy Mint Hares

<div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Aloha Sprinklerinos,</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Before Christmas, on one of my many jaunts through ASOS (an online clothes shopping haven), I stumbled across a bag that embodies everything I look for in a piece of arm candy and snapped it up quicker than you could say, 'Shouldn't you be saving for a holiday?".</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><h3 style="text-align: center;">ASOS Mint Hare Bag </h3><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjJKkS6JM1JCDevpod-dzwOnQ1YaSwecMYrKGQY5fbhwsuDRnKcH1ZheTD6jxf6wYApTsZe0WUwmaQ2W7kA2uAd4EKryquVUn8uG1lrgilNHd6GQE_cN4nxWFDS8eDGbIiqTTsIoCmgJD3v/s1600/Mint+Hair+1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="414" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjJKkS6JM1JCDevpod-dzwOnQ1YaSwecMYrKGQY5fbhwsuDRnKcH1ZheTD6jxf6wYApTsZe0WUwmaQ2W7kA2uAd4EKryquVUn8uG1lrgilNHd6GQE_cN4nxWFDS8eDGbIiqTTsIoCmgJD3v/s640/Mint+Hair+1.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Oh hello <a href="http://www.asos.com/ASOS/ASOS-Tassel-Bowler-Bag-With-Rabbit-Fitting/Prod/pgeproduct.aspx?iid=2544688&SearchQuery=mint%20bag&sh=0&pge=0&pgesize=20&sort=-1&clr=Mint" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">beautiful mint green bag</a> with (faux) gold hardware, tassel and a embossed hare detail. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjNUehmfxLcStRrntDwy1T8Bz7UOySpgjCfuBAJkH6xpv7UOL3L7WYfnVknlooDg-5eXpC7yOk07auiR3VsCByO17YXWIbxrX4pdW0ZB1ThowLqAsWetk2-63dhOA4D0zoEldWUXdRKaLqG/s1600/Mint+Hare+2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjNUehmfxLcStRrntDwy1T8Bz7UOySpgjCfuBAJkH6xpv7UOL3L7WYfnVknlooDg-5eXpC7yOk07auiR3VsCByO17YXWIbxrX4pdW0ZB1ThowLqAsWetk2-63dhOA4D0zoEldWUXdRKaLqG/s640/Mint+Hare+2.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">This bag is described as a 'Tassel Bowler Bag" but in my humble opinion it should be the Mint Hare Bag- far more whimsical. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Retailing for £35 for not real leather, I do think the pricing is a little steep. However, the fact that it is mint & gold, has forest animal detailing (I have a love of woodland creatures), is large enough to fit all my mummy junk and regular stuff in it, can be held with short handles or long straps and has a tassel....well that makes up for it for me.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjieLs1nnoFkVW5inBv-L84mSJefWB-U255uo4KPcoc5pqY23iaWT8DG4TXWLRRUqvnx8kFfX2RC_24cs2gSphMW1H11EoO2ihyVYGZBr7yvIe8_c-BglX3mSCE-ZCncXmA4AgaOsK9S7BL/s1600/Mint+Hare+3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjieLs1nnoFkVW5inBv-L84mSJefWB-U255uo4KPcoc5pqY23iaWT8DG4TXWLRRUqvnx8kFfX2RC_24cs2gSphMW1H11EoO2ihyVYGZBr7yvIe8_c-BglX3mSCE-ZCncXmA4AgaOsK9S7BL/s640/Mint+Hare+3.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">This bag is just what I needed to brighten up a grey January and look forward to Spring with. I tend to wear a lot of pastels and florals from about February-August, so with any luck, this will see me through. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">I haven't had an opportunity to take it outside a lot and really road test it so at the moment, on the durability front, the jury's out. I've never had a 'big bag' from ASOS before so I can't even look back and compare, but based purely on aesthetics, I LOVE IT! </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">What do you think? How much do you allow yourself to spend on a 'big bag'? I think my limit is about £60 if it's very, very special. Let me know in the comments, I'm interested.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Toodlepip!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">xx </div>
