Works for me!

Sometimes I feel discriminated against, but it does not make me angry. It merely astonishes me. How can any deny themselves the pleasure of my company? It's beyond me.

Simple Breakfast - Happy Family!

In the United States, many of us have a three-day holiday weekend. Having everyone home and not rushing through a morning schedule of getting to work and school opens up opportunites to relax and create something in the kitchen. The best time to catch everyone at home is breakfast time and pancakes send out a scent that will wake anyone even thinking about oversleeping.

Simple Pancake Recipe
2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
6 teaspoons baking powder
2 teaspoon salt
3 tablespoon sugar
2 large egg
4 tablespoons oil or melted shortening
2 cups milk

Combine flour, baking powder, salt and sugar in a large bowl. Add the egg and oil (or shortening) and milk. Mix well. Grease griddle or large frying pan. When hot, pour batter, about 1/4 cup at a time. When it bubbles, turn over an cook other side. Makes about 24 medium pancakes.

If you are fortunate enough to possess a waffle iron, this recipe works perfectly for that, too. Waffles always seem to taste different because of their crispness. Remember that besides being a breakfast treat, fruit and whipped cream will make it welcome after a light dinner. It will be light on the budget, too!

Ideas . . .
Don't forget you can add a cup of blueberries to the batter.
A half up of the tiny chocolate chips will be a surprise to your children.
When my husband uses this recipe to make waffles, he add 1/2 cup of cooked Jasmine Rice to the batter.
You can substitute 1 cup of the all-purpose flour for whole wheat flour.
A couple tablespoons of wheat germ adds a toasty taste to eithe waffles or pancakes.
My family likes a teaspoon of vanilla extract added to the batter.
I like to add fresh lemon or orange zest to the batter.

Interesting Explanation of Class Warfare . . .

The folks who are getting the free stuff don't like the folks who are paying for the free stuff, because the folks who are paying for the free stuff can no longer afford to pay for both the free stuff and their own stuff.

And, the folks who are paying for the free stuff want the free stuff to stop.

But the folks who are getting the free stuff want even more free stuff on top of the free stuff they are already getting!

Now... the people who are forcing the people who pay for the free stuff have told the people who are RECEIVING the free stuff that the people who are PAYING for the free stuff are being mean, prejudiced, and racist.

So ... the people who are GETTING the free stuff have been convinced that they need to hate the people who are paying for the free stuff by the people who are forcing some people to pay for their free stuff and giving them the free stuff in the first place.

We have let the free stuff giving go on for so long that there are now more people getting free stuff than paying for the free stuff.

Now understand this. All great democracies have committed financial suicide somewhere between 200 and 250 years after being founded. What is the reason?

The voters figured out they could vote themselves money from the treasury by electing people who promised to give them money from the treasury in exchange for electing them.

The United States officially became a Republic in 1776,which is 236 years ago. The number of people now getting free stuff outnumbers the people paying for the free stuff. We have one chance to change that in 2012. Failure to change that spells the end of the United States as we know it.
