My struggle began in 11th grade when the foods teacher assigned a "quick breads" project. I chose pancakes...because they were supposed to be easy...even from scratch.
An hour later, I still didn't have a decent pancake...
the batter was too thick,
the batter was too thin,
the griddle was too HOT,
the griddle was too cold...
I tried and tried. Finally I ended up with a thick doughy pancake. I put it on a paper plate, into a plastic bag and waited with bated breath...hoping that it would still look like a pancake when I turned it in. Luckily the teacher had no plans to eat it.
Over the years I have had the same general problems. Once while at my parent's house for the weekend, I decided to make pancakes for Heather and Jesse...somehow I made rubber instead.
Tonight I wanted breakfast...not just breakfast...pancakes. I pulled down my bucket of home made whole wheat pancake mix (courtesy of Jesse's mom) and crossed my fingers.
And then it happened! Success I had created pancakes...perfect pancakes!
I can now die happy!
Congrats. Next time you can try Batter Blaster. Stuff is cool and super easy. Find it in grocery stores near the eggs.
