I was very saddened to hear that Barbara Billingsley passed away last Saturday. Leave it to Beaver was one of my very favorite television shows when I was a little girl. I grew up glued to the TV watching June Cleaver...wearing her perfectly starched dresses, an apron, and her tasteful pearls, all the while creating a nurturing atmosphere for Ward, Wally, and the Beaver! Her home was immaculate and she was always there to prepare breakfast, lunch, and dinner for her husband and children. She was truly America's Mom!
Well, I definitely have a lot of June Cleaver in me...today I got up (okay, I slept in a bit later than Mrs. Cleaver would have) and got dressed...making sure I wore my tasteful pearls and a seasonal hostess apron. This cute little apron is by April Cornell...
First, I brewed some delicious pumpkin flavored coffee from The Fresh Market...
Then I prepared pumpkin pancakes (a mix) from the The Fresh Market and topped them with maple syrup, also from The Fresh Market...
This is the pumpkin mold I used to get a pumpkin shape! Oh, I think June Cleaver would have loved this touch!!!
I coated the The Paula Deen pan and the pumpkin mold with Pam spray...
I think they turned out well...pumpkin-y and cute!!!
Are you a modern-day June Cleaver? Do you wear a hostess apron and pearls while preparing meals for your family? I'd love to hear from you!
