Wednesday, May 27, 2009 we watched the classic musical Singin' In The Rain (1952) and made Good Mornin' Breakfast: Chocolate Chip Pancakes with Cinnamon Cream and Turkey Sausage Patties accompanied by grapefruit halves and orange juice.In this Technicolor masterpiece, Gene Kelly, Debbie Reynolds and Donald O'Connor combine their talents in one of the best musicals ever made. When Hollywood attempts the transition from silent movies to talkies, matinee idol Kelly hopes to make the cut. Jean Hagen stands out as a silent-movie queen with a fingernails-on-a-blackboard voice. Musical fare includes "Good Morning," "Make 'Em Laugh" and the title tune.
The pancake recipe was a bit involved but came out delicious! And to think we almost forgot about the cinnamon cream--mmm! Homemade turkey sausage patties were yummy too, and whole foods had juicy, sweet grapefruit. All in all, a memorable and delicious evening.
