Buckwheat Pancakes

1 cup buckwheat flour
2 TBS brown sugar (I use Lakanto and molasses, maple sugar and molasses would work too)
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1/8 tsp cinnamon, nutmeg, clove each
1 egg
1 cup buttermilk (I used rice milk w/ 2 tsp apple cider vinegar)
1 TBS butter, melted (I used coconut oil)

Combine all ingredients until smooth. Pour batter by 1/4 cupfuls on to hot greased or nonstick griddle. Turn when bubbles form on top of pancakes. Makes about six 4" pancakes.

Midway Farm

I took the kids to the Midway Farm with our play group. We had a great time on the tour. Gabriel helped feed a calf a bottle of milk and then petted every animal they had (cows, dog, cat, chickens, ducks, turkey, geese, etc.) The boys each got a flower to take home and they are going to use pictures of our group to advertise their farm tours.
