Bake Pancakes on Saturday Morning

Let's bake pancakes on Saturday morning.

Pancakes made with a simple pancake mix are fine.
In fact, they are convenient because I can make them without thinking.
I bake such pancakes on the weekend.

I drink pancakes and coffee ground from beans.
If you have a coffee maker with a grinder, you can enjoy it easily.
Not only is it easy to enjoy, but the process itself is also fun.
Let's enjoy the sound of coffee beans being crushed, the aroma rising as if exhaled, the bitterness of the coffee, and the pancakes together.

Children also love pancakes, and if I serve them, they are happy, which makes for a fulfilling holiday morning.

Well then.

What should I put on the pancakes?
Today, I'll be a little extravagant and add vanilla ice cream.

When cold vanilla ice cream is placed on hot pancakes, it becomes an exquisite sauce.
Let's add maple syrup on top of that too.

I think this might be where all the happiness that exists right now is packed.

As I eat that on Saturday morning, Peter Barakan's radio program on NHK FM, Weekend Sunshine, begins, and the opening theme, Sunshine Day, starts to play. I spend my time immersed in Mr. Barakan's voice as he begins to speak and the high-quality music he curates.

Saturday morning is the best.
