Pannekoeken bakken!


I have a few moments....maybe....
The little one is supposed to take a nap....we'll see....right now she is cruizing her crib, looking for her binkie...but she is still quiet....shhhhhh

With all my Dutch cousins popping up all over the place I started getting a hunkering for something Dutch to eat.

So I fixed myself a pile of Dutch pancakes. See picture.
Now...the real Dutch pancakes are a lot thicker than I make them. Mine are more like crepes.

I dribble a line of Lyle's Golden Syrup on the middle, then a layer of cut up strawberries, and than a thick line of whipped cream. Then I roll the thing up and eat it, standing over the sink...this stuff can get messy and sticky...

YUMMMMMMMMMMMmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

When Bugs stopped by to drop Boo-boo off she smelled the pancakes, but said she didn't want any...HA!...She hesitated at the front door then came back and wolfed down three of them....

Nothing as satisfying as something sweet, sticky and warm, and doesn't that sound naughty!
:>)

Can't think about much to write about right now, it's hard to keep focused on writing with one ear at the door, expecting to have to jump up and get involved with my little whirlwind.

For fun I have been letting her roam around the house, just to see what she would get into.

Wow!

Within 30 minutes she destroyed the bathroom, rolled off all the toilet paper, pulled down the towels, emptied the laundry basket. She then proceeded to empty the shelves of my desk here, phone books, photo paper...books from the book shelf....
In the living room she single handed emptied the book shelves of videos and DVDs, took all my cookbooks down and pounded on the keypad of the micro wave oven.

She then went into her own room, and took down the baskets on her changing table, not much in there but diapers and tubes of ointment. Not interesting enough.

So when can I start teaching her to put stuff back????

I bought her a coloring book with a small pack of crayons....good luck! Bugs said. Sheesh...I can try, can't I?

The weather here in Georgia is pretty nice at the moment. It won't be long before it's too hot to go outdoors. The cherry blossoms and dogwoods are now in full bloom, this is by far the best time of the year.
Not having any medical emergencies to cope with at the moment, or other dramas for that matter, helps, of course.

Two years ago we were experiencing the passing of my aunt. Last year the birth of Boo-boo...This year...wait and see with my father...but...everything is quiet...let's hope we can keep it that way....at least for a few weeks...

Enjoy the sunshine y'all!

SGMKJ!

P.S.: Huhlaroo....I can't wait to see you again too...Bugs is going to try and get some time off, so she can come to your shower as well....*hugs*
