I have always loved to bake. I remember as a little girl helping my Mom make cookies and then as I got older doing it myself. Since then I have progressed from cookies to pies and some other goodies in between. I did, however, have a huge dislike for cooking especially after Bryan and I got married. I think some of that dislike atributed to the fact that I was pregnant and everything made me sick. Luckily in the past year or so I have shed that dislike for cooking and have grown to love it. I especially like to find new recipes by looking through cookbooks or searching the internet. I found a recipe for Chunky Monkey Pancakes and decided to try them out on the kids first since Bryan isnt open to to many new things. 
They loved them and I love them which means the recipe is a keeper. The real test will be to see if Bryan likes them, of course without the nuts. Chunky Monkey Pancakes

Oh my word! I love chunky monkey ice cream (and thin mint)! I was hooked once I saw chunky monkey! Could you please make these when you come? :)
Sounds good!
