More Powdered Sugar, Please!



Happy Pink Saturday! 


 
Recognize this pan? It is for making Ebleskiver.



   Æbleskiver  are traditional Danish pancakes in a distinctive shape of a sphere. Similar in texture to American pancakes crossed with a popover, æbleskiver are solid like a pancake but light and fluffy like a popover. 





 Getting to today's 'pink' I have a photo of the fresh, hot ebleskiver I shared today with Handyman.


We endured braved the heat and walked around the annual Old Towne Orange Street Fair today to sample some of the culinary delights. The cross-streets of Chapman Avenue and Glassell were cordoned off from vehicle traffic and more than a dozen ethnic food booths sold everything from bratwurst to fried rice.
 Our ebleskiver were served with raspberry jam and powdered sugar. As if that wasn't enough for his sweet tooth, Handyman also bought a root beer float.





 I drank water, but have to admit his drink looked inviting!
We looked at the vendor booths outside, then browsed in a few of the antique shops that line the streets.


I SPY A FEW PINK HATS :)

  From the crowded shops it was clear that others were taking advantage of a little A.C. like us!


The shops were chock full of furniture and dishes~


 There were old records, magazines and books~


 Signs, signs, everywhere a sign~



Another August gone, school has begun and it is now just a blink or two from the holidays. Can you believe it? Have a safe and relaxing Labor Day weekend!
