They fly in formation to more idyllic and much warmer locales such as the Bosque del Apache in New Mexico. Similarly, large numbers of pasty-skinned human migrants from Canada and the northern tier of the fruited plains leave behind the rigors of snow shoveling, sub-zero temperatures, dark winter nights and bitterly disappointing fall television schedules. They journey by every motorized conveyance known to man to the southern United States and Mexico, toting their golf clubs, swimming trunks, SPF-400 suntan oil and bags of money. In polite company, we call these heat-seeking seasonal migrants &#8220;<em>snowbirds<\/em>.&#8221; Many of them, especially the blonde ones of the XX chromosome pairing, seem to favor Scottsdale, Arizona.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_44767\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-44767\" style=\"width: 720px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-44767 size-full lazyload\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 720px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 720\/419;border: 4px solid black; margin-top: 3px; margin-bottom: 3px;\" data-src=\"https:\/\/b4385483.assetcdn.net\/2.0\/4385483\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Butters03.jpg?lossy=2&strip=1&webp=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"720\" height=\"419\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/b4385483.assetcdn.net\/2.0\/4385483\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Butters03.jpg?lossy=2&strip=1&webp=1 720w, https:\/\/b4385483.assetcdn.net\/2.0\/4385483\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Butters03-300x175.jpg?lossy=2&strip=1&webp=1 300w, https:\/\/b4385483.assetcdn.net\/2.0\/4385483\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Butters03.jpg?size=128x74&lossy=2&strip=1&webp=1 128w, https:\/\/b4385483.assetcdn.net\/2.0\/4385483\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Butters03.jpg?size=384x223&lossy=2&strip=1&webp=1 384w, https:\/\/b4385483.assetcdn.net\/2.0\/4385483\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Butters03.jpg?size=512x298&lossy=2&strip=1&webp=1 512w, https:\/\/b4385483.assetcdn.net\/2.0\/4385483\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Butters03.jpg?size=640x372&lossy=2&strip=1&webp=1 640w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 720px) 100vw, 720px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-44767\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Cheese Blintzes with Lingonberry Sauce<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>We had thought the concept of snowbirds applied solely to migratory avian and human refugees from winter, but during our visit to Kim&#8217;s brother Tim and sister-in-law Lola at their Avondale home just west of Phoenix, we wondered if every Chicago area restaurant was making like a snowbird, too. From purveyors of butter burgers (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nmgastronome.com\/?p=22\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Culver&#8217;s<\/strong><\/a>) to paragons of casserole-thick pizzas such as <a href=\"https:\/\/giordanos.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Giordanno&#8217;s,<\/strong><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ginoseast.com\/locations\/phoenix#home\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Gino&#8217;s East, <\/strong><\/a> <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.rosatispizza.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Rosatti&#8217;s Pizza<\/a><\/strong> (which had a short-lived dalliance with Albuquerque) and even <a href=\"https:\/\/www.loumalnatis.com\/arizona\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Lou Malnati&#8217;s,<\/strong><\/a> they&#8217;re all in the Phoenix area.

It&#8217;s the younger sibling of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.butterfieldsrestaurants.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Butterfield&#8217;s Pancake House<\/strong><\/a> which has been serving some of the best breakfasts in the Windy City since the year 2000.

You&#8217;ll never accuse the lingonberry of being a &#8220;snowbird.&#8221; These hardy berries thrive in cold weather climates from New England to Minnesota. Bring them South and they won&#8217;t survive the heat. Okay, so you can&#8217;t get locally-grown lingonberries on your pancakes, French toast or crepes in the Phoenix area, but the lingonberry sauce topping the <em><strong>cheese blintzes<\/strong><\/em> is the next best thing. Resembling the taste of cranberries, only just a tad more tart, lingonberries are a perfect complement to the Ricotta-cottage cheese blend with which the blintzes are stuffed. A little confectioner&#8217;s sugar imparts just a bit of sweetness.<\/p>\n<p><strong>28 July 2028<\/strong>: Now, if you want something as sweet as the song of a snowbird leaving the cold weather behind, try one of Butters&#8217; six types of French toast. Four of us shared the <em><strong>nutella French toast with bananas<\/strong><\/em> and were pinging off the walls from the sugar high. Because the French toast, (two brioche slices sliced thick slathered with sweet hazelnut cocoa and fresh bananas) weren&#8217;t enough, someone had the bright idea to top them with the house syrup, an especially sweet and rich elixir. These are hearty French toast, the type of which Northerners (and wimpy Arizonans who don parkas when the temperature drops below sixty) need to combat the cold. They&#8217;re not only substantial, they&#8217;re delicious.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_44768\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-44768\" style=\"width: 720px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-44768 size-full lazyload\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 720px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 720\/435;border: 4px solid black; margin-top: 3px; margin-bottom: 3px;\" data-src=\"https:\/\/b4385483.assetcdn.net\/2.0\/4385483\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Butters04.jpg?lossy=2&strip=1&webp=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"720\" height=\"435\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/b4385483.assetcdn.net\/2.0\/4385483\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Butters04.jpg?lossy=2&strip=1&webp=1 720w, https:\/\/b4385483.assetcdn.net\/2.0\/4385483\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Butters04-300x181.jpg?lossy=2&strip=1&webp=1 300w, https:\/\/b4385483.assetcdn.net\/2.0\/4385483\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Butters04.jpg?size=128x77&lossy=2&strip=1&webp=1 128w, https:\/\/b4385483.assetcdn.net\/2.0\/4385483\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Butters04.jpg?size=384x232&lossy=2&strip=1&webp=1 384w, https:\/\/b4385483.assetcdn.net\/2.0\/4385483\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Butters04.jpg?size=512x309&lossy=2&strip=1&webp=1 512w, https:\/\/b4385483.assetcdn.net\/2.0\/4385483\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Butters04.jpg?size=640x387&lossy=2&strip=1&webp=1 640w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 720px) 100vw, 720px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-44768\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Cobb Salad with Maytag Blue Cheese Dressing<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>While the rest of us enjoyed our cavalcade of calories (washed down with Diet Pepsi), my Kim had a more sensible <em><strong>Cobb salad<\/strong><\/em>, albeit a behemoth bounty of lettuce, bacon, shredded Cheddar cheese, chopped tomatoes, grilled chicken, sliced avocados, hard-boiled eggs, croutons and Maytag blue cheese dressing.
