new

Here is the sneak peak of my new item that I promised. I have made retro fabric patch note cards. I am planning to sell them in sets of 4. Each card will have a different patch. Starting tomorrow they will be available in my etsy shop.

baked pancakes

Every summer we spend some time in South Carolina. While there I always look through the cookbooks that are in the houses that we rent. A few years ago I found a recipe for baked pancakes in an old southern cookbook. I modified the recipe a little from the original, and it is now one of the kids favorites. It is a cross between an egg dish and pancakes. I serve it with jam spread on top.

Baked Pancakes
3 tablespoons butter
4 eggs
1 cup flour
1 cup milk
pinch nutmeg

Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Cut butter into several piece and place into a 9 x 13 glass baking dish and place in the oven while it is preheating to melt butter. Make sure to keep an eye on it so the butter does not burn.

In a bowl lightly beat eggs. Add milk, flour and nutmeg. Mix lightly, batter will be a bit lumpy.

Once butter is melted, swirl the baking dish to coat bottom and sides with melted butter. Pour in batter.

Bake for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown.

It is hard to believe that Celia is five. The time is going by so fast. Spent the early morning making cupcake for her to bring into class. She pick vanilla cupcakes with chocolate frosting and sprinkles, every five year olds dream.

bangs

My oldest daughter is in the process of growing out her bangs. I found these cute hair clips from My Zoe Bug on etsy. I think these will make the process more attractive.
