These are over the top pancakes. The best part is the spiced maple syrup. Mmmmmm. Drench those babies in it.

Recipe from Cuisine At Home Magazine
Goodbye Lennon.
One of my favorite songs ever. And one that always makes me ask myself “Wtf is going on here?”
“Today my past caught up with me
And you were standing over there
You asked me what’s the time
You asked me what’s the year and smiled the saddest smile I’d ever seen”
“I only wish I’d been around
As if you needed me at all
I couldn’t stay, just had to go
I waited years for you to show
But that’s all in the past
It happened oh so fast”
“You saw it coming, didn’t you”
