Father's Day and a Pancake Breakfast



The third Sunday in June is the day we honor Fathers.  That is the day to celebrate your Father or the person who is the Father Figure in your life.

For Mother's Day we suggested you make breakfast for your mom then why not do the same for your Father.  The best breakfast which is great for the family is a Pancake Breakfast.  You can make Pancakes, Home Fries and not to mention Bacon.  If your Father is vegan or is allergic to eggs then just like we suggested for mom you can make him oatmeal with soy milk.  If your Father can't have gluten there are pancake mixes that are gluten free.  If you don't want to stand over a hot stove that day it is okay to make frozen pancakes.

While it would be great to make this special meal for scratch but it is okay to take the easy route and use mixes or frozen food your Father shouldn't mind.  If you does then make it from scratch.  I am going to tell you about some products that will make it easy for you.

First there is Aunt Jemima. You should remember this from your childhood. They have a whole bunch of products from pancake mixes, frozen pancakes and syrups.


If you need Gluten Free Items then check out Bisquick. They have a line of Gluten Free items.


Last but not least there is Log Cabin. They have Gluten Free Syrups.


For the Home Fries the easiest thing to do it by them from OreIda.  You can buy the Roasted Potatoes and add some veggies.


If you Father doesn't want you to cook then go out to eat.

I Hop is known for their great pancakes.


If you are on the east coast then you can always go to your local Diner.  If you don't have one The Waffle House is a great place.


If you are on the west coast you can go to Carrows



Enjoy spending the day with your Father.

Ferris Buller's Day Off

Ferris Buller's Day Off




It was 30 years ago on, June 5, 1985, that High School Senior Ferris Bueller took the day off from school.  This movie was released in one year later.  Ferris Bueller'sDay Off was not only written and produced by John Hughes but he also directed this 1986 comedy blockbuster.  The movie is about how  Ferris Bueller (MatthewBroderick) cons his parents (Cindy Pickett and Lyman Ward) into thinking he is so sick that they let him take the day off from school. We follow along and actually see what he actual does on his day off.  His sister Jeanie (Jennifer Grey) knows that Ferris is lying but can't prove it. The principal of the school Ed Rooney (Jeffrey Jones) is also after Ferris and want to catch him in his lie. This movie also stars Alan Ruck as Ferris' hypochondriac and depressed best friend Cameron who along with Ferris's girlfriend Sloane (Mia Sara) goes along for the adventure.  We should also mention Ben Stein as the teacher taking attendance.

The other thing in this movie that is famous is that you see some of the iconic Chicago landmarks. Parts of this movie was also filmed in Los Angeles.

Here is a list of the locations in this movie:


One of the most famous scenes from this movie takes place during the Von Steuben Parade.  Ferris sings  Wayne Newton's "Danke Schoen" then The Beatles' "Twist and Shout."
