Coconut pancakes

Yesterday we hauled the last Christmas decorations back up into the attic, so it’s official. The holidays are over.

Oh, I wish I were on a plane to someplace warm with a white, sandy beach. St. Barths or Cabo? Maybe St. John or Bora Bora? Ahh, well, since a flight south isn’t in my Orbitz search field, we’ll bring a bit of the tropics to us.
