Buttermilk Pancake Mix Presents

Ill just come right out and say it: Im an excellent houseguest.

I usually come with an edible treat that usually involves butter and sugar. Heck Ill even bring a pink box of doughnuts and champagne if the mood strikes me.

If I dont have anything edible in tow, rest assured that I come bearing The Gift of the Dance meaning that Ill shave my groove thing all over the house (this may or may not involve a cartwheel or two).

My most recent houseguest happyplace is this homemade pancake mix. Naturally, it has dark chocolate chips in it. All thats required is that there be an egg, butter, and buttermilk in the house.

If you let me sleep over Ill probably even make these for you. If you feed me mimosas, I might even do the dishes.

Can I come over?

I found some old diner-style sugar shakers to hold the pancake mix. I totally found these suckers at the dollar store. So many bizarre treasures at the dollar store. I decorated the jars simply with some brown packing paper and twine.

The handwritten recipe is included.

Inspire breakfast!

I love whats happening here.

I love when gifts are edible and cheap, but still awesome.

I love when I have an excuse to use my Anthropologie (totally inaccurate and just for show) measuring cups.

Everything in a jar. Scoop it and spoon it.

Scoop it and Spoon it should totally be and R&B song. You know Im right.

When Im feeling fancy, I bring a stick of butter, an egg, and a jar of buttermilk as a part of my houseguest gift but those are really just perks. If you show up with chocolate and the promise of breakfast, youre winning for sure.
