Apartment Tour: Before
Mal loved my Cinnamon Brown Sugar Pancakes so much, he asked for them again this weekend. I liked them a lot too, so I wasn’t going to turn down his request!
I made cinnamon apples for the topping again, but this time I added a splash of water, a few shakes of cinnamon, and a squirt of agave nectar. The agave nectar added a nice sweetness and, combined with the water, it created a yummy apple-cinnamon sauce.
While eating breakfast, my hubby suggested that we rearrange the furniture in our apartment. Mal and I have both complained that our new place isn’t as “homey” as we had hoped, so we decided to do something about it.
I have a million things to do this afternoon. I’m off!

Mmmm like apple pie pancakes!
Only healthier..
Looking forward to see how rearranging goes. My mom is a serial rearranger..she is guaranteed to move my furniture around when she is here. She did it last weekend, but we haven’t had the chance to move it back yet. Maybe I should rearrange while I’m at it!

You pancakes look great! I make the same apple topping for my oatmeal many days- it is quick and easy and makes them really special!

I love your apartment already It looks very open and spacious, which is not something I’d associate with Boston appartments

Your house is really cute Tina! Good luck rearranging… I always find it kind of fun to move everything around- keeps things interesting. And that’s the worst when you don’t feel cozy in your house. I’m sure you’ll make it better soon. Plus, pancakes help too!

I LOVE rearranging furniture and things! I used to do it all the time but now the furniture we have is way too big and heavy to move. Have fun….your breakfast looked great!! My hubby made pancakes this morning and I sneaked some pumpkin butter in my batter……HOLY YUM!

I LOVE rearranging stuff and shopping in home. Yummy pancakes I was too lazy to make any today. I love the apartment can’t wait to see what you guys come up with.

I like rearraging things. I’m annoyed that our current apparment doesn’t have alot of options to rearrange. :0(
I make that apple topping all the time and just add granola on top because it tastes like apple crisp :=)

Your apartment is awesome! I love your furniture, and I really like the cool loft-style TV/office area. I want a place like that.
Your pancakes look great, too. I never make pancakes, although I do love them. I’m going to try your recipe soon!

My mom used to move the furniture around every month when I was growing up, its harder to know but we have completely changed our tv and living room.

I love the layout of your apartment! Even though I technically live in a big city, I’d love to live somewhere like Boston or Chicago. Can’t wait to see what you do with the place!
