Fun with Pancakes
We eat pancakes about once a week because it's cheap, easy and the boys love it (did I mention it's cheap). Well, I decide to do something a little extra on pancake night and make them a little "fancy". So, everyone got their initial in a pancake (I didn't take into consideration the fact that I needed to reverse the R, J and S, so they're backwards) and we had polk-dots, hearts, stars and smiley-faces. To do this you spoon the design on the hot gridle first (I used our tsp measure to just get a small amount), let it set, and then pour the pancake mix over it and let it set again before you flip it. The boys thought it was great and it turned ordinary pancake night into something a little special.

I LOVE this! I'm totally trying this over the weekend and I'll let you know how it turns out!
This is totally up my alley - I'm always carving cheese, fried eggs, toast, you name it into letters to "spell" out some word for my son.
Just the other day I was thinking of pouring the pancake batter into alphabet cookie cutters, but I didn't think it would be to flippable (is that a word?).
This is a much better idea!
This is really cute. What a fun idea! I think if I tried it I would mess it up, though. I'm not so good with 'the flipping of the pancakes and them coming out good thing.'
Those are cute! :)
