Two years ago I saw on a friend's blog that she does Backward's Day instead of April's Fools Day. I loved that idea. Teaching my kids to trick will only come back to haunt me in a few years! So we started Backward's Day today by having dessert for breakfast! The kids loved having strawberry shortcake in the morning!
Tori and Ariana had their clothes on backwards for the day but since everyone else had school that didn't work well!
We then had breakfast for dinner which I love! I made yummy pancakes and homemade syrups! Oh they were so good!
Strawberry jam! My mom just sent me this recipe and it is delicious!
Hot Pancake Topping
Melt 1/2 cup (1 stick) margarine in a heavy
saucepan.
Stir in 1/2 cup of honey and
1/2 cup raspberry
preserve or apricot preserves or orange marmalade
Heat, stirring constantly
until mixture boils.
The white one is Buttermilk syrup found here!
It was fun but I need to find some more ideas! Got any?

Backwards Day! How fun! Strawberry shortcake anytime is delicious!
We have a “celebration waffle” that would go great for breakfast. Take a normal yellow cake mix and make according to package directions. Instead of putting it in the oven, you would use the batter to make waffles. Top with icecream, cut up strawberries, cut up bananas, chocolate syrup, and whipped topping. SOOO delicious. It’s not too sweet since it’s only a thin piece of cake (waffle). Great for a backwards day.
