Punxsutawney Phil Pancakes

Punxsutawney Phil Pancake

These are Punxsutawney Phil pancakes that my sister Marcie made for her kids in honor of Ground Hog Day. I thought they were so adorable. It sure beats the yogurt I had for breakfast yesterday.

When you live in a snowy state you celebrate any sign of spring--no matter how small or how weird it may seem. Here in Pennsylvania we embrace the weather forecasting expertise of a ground hog named Phil. Yesterday he popped out of his hole and found himself shadow free! Yes, it's true. Phil didn't see his shadow so we are going to have an early spring.

Phil has become a national phenomenon, but if you have no idea what I'm talking about, or just want to know more about Phil, you can visit the Official Website of the Punxsutawney Groundhog Club.
