With the cream cheese pancakes, is the batter supposed to be lumpy from the cream cheese?
Olivia Wyles
Yes, slightly lumpy! But make sure your cream cheese is softened.

What are your feelings about avocados? I eat a 1/2 (if it is a large one) or a whole if small everyone morning with my eggs.
Daniel
I love avocados with breakfast! Whenever I get a chance to cook my breakfast I’ll make 2 scrambled eggs with a slice of bacon, a whole sliced avocado, and a small sliced tomato.

Hey Olivia,
Just wondering if the bulletproof coffee is served hot or cold?
Olivia Wyles
Usually hot, but I bet you could make a killer ice version too!
