I still make my boys regular pancakes all the time. They need those extra carbs for energy and growth! They are VERY VERY EASY...
½ cup Self-rising Flour
½ cup whole milk
1 medium egg (if you double the recipe, just use one LARGE egg)
1 T oil
1 T sugar
Whir this all together and pour into an oiled medium-hot skillet.
Jedis love this and it's almost as quick as pouring cereal in a bowl. I put blueberries in them for Joshua and serve them with syrup and whipped cream.
Maybe I'll have time this weekend!
Since they take a bit more effort, I just can't see making them on a week morning. And they're kinda over what we're supposed to have for nuts in a day unless I save half the recipe for another time. Just a little splurge, though...I'm OK with that.
BTW, I was bad and sneaked a peek at the scale again today, though it's not my official weigh-in day. The extra pound is gone and took another with it, so I'm down one from last week. Whew...about time. I was stuck for three weeks! And that one pound was a second digit change, which is always nice.
So glad you got one Long Cut!
Have a great day yourself!

I just hope we all can continue to make YOU proud of us.
vey cool! We were thinkin about turnin elf-boy's bed into a castle, but this fort thing has major potential.
Enjoy it!
You are always in our prayers!
I'm making these tonight (for in the morning) for the boys...these are a hit at the g'nad household, from what I understand! They take a bit more effort so I'm making them tonight as a special treat before I go to the Wedding...
Yeast-risen Belgian Waffles
Combine in a large bowl:
2 C. all-purpose flour
2 T. Sugar
3/4 tsp. Salt
1/2 tsp. Active Dry Yeast
In another bowl, warm up 2 cups of whole milk and add a stick of melted butter. Mix it in with the dry ingredients. Mix it till well blended (I use a mixer).
Now cover the batter up, set it on the counter overnight. It'll rise up pretty big, so give it lots of space to rise!
Next morning, separate 3 eggs.
Mix the yolks in with the batter.
Whip the egg whites till they form soft peaks...I use a hand mixer with a whisk attachment...works very fast. I also add just a sprinkle of sugar before I start beating the whites...I hear it makes them form up faster.
Fold the egg whites into the batter carefully. There will be little lumps of egg white...that's ok.
Pour into your waffle iron. I use 3/4ths of a cup, but my iron is a belgian iron.
Minnow likes being dyed, he gets lots more attention than he normally would.
God bless you! Thank you for your service.
Luke's room has a castle painted on the wall and we got him one of those Mega-Blocks building castles for Christmas. I don't see the castle thing happening with the fort. I am tho, planning to hoist a Jolly Roger from the top.
I have yet to try pancakes with peanut butter! It sounds reallly good, but just wouldn't have occurred to me. I remember someone else here mentioning that.
Sounds like it would be fantastic, especially with real maple syrup.
There have always been divisions... but the big ones started in, was it 73 or 83? Anyway, after the two main denominations merged into the PCUSA, there were problems, and all the offshoots happened. My denomination is the biggest of those offshoots.
ROFLOL!!! Now the self-rising pancakes are not too hard! And they're CHEAP, which is of course my main motivation.
