Tale of The Pancake When I was a young lass learning to cook. Many a day I found myself in disarray. My dear sweet mother had an electric stove so what little I did do, it was on this lovely stove. So as a young bride many things I had to do and cooking was one of the requirements. Anything from a can I could handle, anything else beware. One day I had a hunger for golden, delicious pancakes. Since I am a modern girl to Bisquick I did go. That ole gas stove turned on with the flame nice and high I pour the batter and in the wink of an eye, the pancake is black. So I flip this not so tasty lookin’ pancake. In another blink of an eye that ole pancake is blacker than black. Well one not to give up, I slice this silly pancake the color of black. Inside the color of paste, is a little ole uncooked pancake. So I turn that ole flame down and try once again. It cooks and cooks and cooks until it has the right color. Now I’m not a sayin’ golden brown more like brown with white spots. Well I think it has been a cookin’ long enough- I grab a knife and start to slice So far so good, I taste. Well folks if you like rubber pancakes this sure fills the bill. With time and practice I finally figured that ole gas stove. But while I was a learnin’, I went out and bought a little ole electric skillet. Now folks this is not the end of my tale cause I have a son who doesn’t read directions. Did you ever bake and bake and bake then wind up drinking a cake? Bonnie J. |
