Pancake of the Month #2: The Single Pancake

Not to be confused with the Single Lady pancake, also from Joy the Baker. Which pancake I still love to make, although I do split it into two flippable cakes. And, you know, read the recipe properly (2 tsp <> 2 tbsp!).

This is a very similar recipe, with blueberries instead of bananas and no pecans.



The result? Well, it's still tasty. This recipe is good for weekday pancakes, because you're not stuck making a dozen. I'd love to make up a bunch of packets of the dry ingredients so I can save the time measuring out the ingredients. (The other way is to make up a batch of pancakes on the weekend and freeze any extras which can be reheated on a weekday; the problem with this system is you need leftover pancakes, which doesn't happen much around here anymore.)

Timey-wimey pyjamas!


I've made more three more pairs of Sewaholic Tofinos. I finally made the blue plaid flannel pair made at the end of June, just in time for the heat to ramp up, naturally, but I'm going to hold off on blogging them until I finish the DC's matching pair. Noteworthy: the print-matching, the satin piping along the seams, and using a poly satin for the belt.

Pancake of the Month #1: Sweet Peach

It's been a while since I've made a new pancake recipe, so PotM has a lot of catching up to do! Fortunately, there is The Beach.


My friends E & L invite us to their cottage on Lake Huron every year. The only rules are 1) tell them when you're coming and 2) bring food. I always make pancakes, because obviously, so it seemed like a good time to reboot the challenge.^* I made Sweet Peach Pancakes from myrecipes.com because a) I like peaches and b) I really like cornmeal in my pancakes. I doubled the recipe because I was cooking for 9.5 people^** and used canned sliced peaches because of what I learned last time.


The verdict?
