Generally on the first Monday of the year, I dread going to the gym, because it's usually packed!  I felt like I was in the twilight zone this morning though. There were actually LESS people at the gym than usual.  Is it still the holiday? I know we don't get mail today, but what's the deal?  Did anyone set New Years Resolutions?  Anyway, it was nice to not have to wait for my favorite cardio machine, the Stairway to nowhere machine.  ha ha

So, this morning is officially the last day of vacation for my kids.  I announced we were having PIZZA for breakfast!  As you can imagine, they were pretty excited.  In fact, they were actually more excited when they found out it was really pancakes for breakfast, but eaten with their fingers, like a pizza!

Here is what we did:

• Made one big pancake- as big as would fit in our griddle.
• Placed one cup of raspberries in a saucepan, crushed them with the back of a wooden spoon, and stirred until they were broken down into a chunky sauce.
• Spread the berry sauce over the big pancake.
• Sprinkled with coconut (to look like the cheese)

Super easy, and super yummy!

The toppings here could be endless. We thought of:

• Bananas
• Apples
• Peaches
• Berries
• Pineapple
• Crushed nuts
• seeds
• Granola

What do you think would be good on this?
