Birthday Cake Pancakes

Yes... you read that right! BIRTHDAY. CAKE. PANCAKES!!! These are crazy delicious and crazy sweet! Perfect for my hubby who loves all things Birthday cake. I stumbled upon the original recipe awhile back and knew I had to make these for his Birthday. We made them together and changed it up a bit to create what we think is the best Birthday concoction EVER!

Cake Ingredients
1 1/2 cups flour
2/3 cup yellow cake mix
1 1/2 cups milk
1/2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp vanilla
2 eggs
pinch of salt
rainbow bead sprinkles

Combine flour, cake mix, baking powder and salt in a bowl. Add milk, egg and vanilla and mix with a fork until smooth. TIP: you might want to start with only half the milk and gradually add the rest as needed to make sure the batter doesn't become too runny. Different cake mixes vary in moisture. Sprinkle in the rainbow sprinkles and swirl them into the batter.

Heat a pancake skillet over medium heat on the stove with a touch of butter so the batter doesn't stick. Cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side.

Icing Ingredients
2 cups powdered sugar
3 1/2 Tbsp milk
1 tsp vanilla
more rainbow sprinkles

Mix the powdered sugar, milk and vanilla in a bowl until all ingredients are combined and a nice syrupy (is that a word?) glaze forms.

Pour icing over plated pancakes and garnish with more rainbow sprinkles!

Makes approximately 8 medium size cakes. We've pretty much decided that it doesn't need to be someone's Birthday to make these again. They're so much fun to make (and eat) and would make an awesome breakfast idea for kids too. Enjoy!

Palm Springs Iconic Home Tour

As some of you may know, this week is Modernism Week in Palm Springs, California and we had the unique opportunity of touring the newly named historic site, the Menrad House, designed by William Krisel. It was the perfect balance of casual flow and minimalist simplicity. All I can say is I wanted to move in right then and there. Loving this retro design and those clerestory windows allowing for all of that natural light without sacrificing ones privacy. That artwork is fantastic and the bedding in that master bedroom... love . This patio cover is to die for. A genius way to provide a bit of shade without feeling closed in. The design is so simple but the overall effect is absolutely stunning. Apparently, these homes sold so fast that a brochure was never even produced to promote them. I snapped a few shots of the neighboring houses and will share them soon. Next up, a tour of vintage trailers and caravans on Saturday. Can't wait to get inspired for wh...

Purple Power Juice

As we wrap up our 3 day juice reboot , I find myself thinking about this fruity concoction we enjoyed on day 2 . A strong, berry burst with a bite of ginger, perfect as a morning pick-me-up. Remember, fruit is best consumed in the morning on an empty stomach because it moves through your digestive system much faster than other foods. 6 cups of concord grapes 1 green apple 1/2 cup of blackberries 2 2" pieces of ginger (I used 1 1" piece because ginger is super strong) Enjoy! xo Sécia Check out our other juice recipes here !
