Weekend Blueberry Pancakes ๐Ÿซ

 I first tried blueberry pancakes decades ago at a local breakfast spot and used to recreate them back then. For the past ten years, though, I was all about Korean pancakes (pajeon).

So why pancakes now? It started when I bought a bag of frozen blueberries and needed to use them up. I made blueberry pancakes one weekend—and now, making them every Saturday morning has become my favorite mood lifter!

These days, I use fresh blueberries instead of frozen, and a healthy grain pancake mix instead of the regular one. Happy weekend! ✨

The evolution of my breakfast egg dishes:
I used to make hard-boiled eggs or vegetable scrambled eggs,

but they actually took more time than expected.
These days, I make a big batch of vegetable
steamed eggs, portion it into small bowls,
and keep them in the fridge to heat up in the morning.
My weekday rule: No cooking on the stove in the morning!

Instructions
1. In a pot or clay pot, combine the chopped vegetables and water, then bring to a boil over high heat.
2. Crack the eggs into a bowl and whisk the whites and yolks together. Add the minced garlic, stir well,

and season with a pinch of salt.
3. Once step 1 reaches a boil, add the fish sauce and slowly pour in the egg mixture while adjusting the heat.
4. Reduce the heat to medium-low so it doesn't burn. Gently scrape the bottom of the pot

with a spoon to keep the eggs from sticking or burning.
5. Cover with a lid, lower the heat, and cook until fully set. Let it cool, 

portion into individual small bowls, and refrigerate. 

Just microwave for 30 seconds each morning!


First Harvest of Backyard Balloon Flower Roots & Spicy Salad!





Just for fun, I scattered some balloon flower seeds 

from Korea in my backyard...
Planted the seeds in April 2025, 

and after 1 year and 4 months... 
I finally made the spicy salad I’ve been craving! ๐Ÿ’œ
