Kitchen Experiment #1: Hotcakes Are Pancakes
18 July 2014 § 0
I woke up with Sooki breathing down my face.
"Good morning Papa!" An innocent smile on her face. "I'm hungry. I want pancakes."
It was a Saturday morning so she didn't have class and can have anything she wants for breakfast. Half of my consciousness still in dreamland, I said yes. I closed my eyes to give myself another 5 minutes then the horror set in: I didn't have a hotcake mix.
"What am I supposed to do? Maybe I should just tell her to eat cereal instead. But I don't want to disappoint her... Aw that look on her face when she's disappointed... I can't bear it..." My mind bombarded with these thoughts.
Quick as lightning, I jumped off from the bed and went straight to the kitchen. Thank my lucky stars I have flour. And not just any kind of flour; a self raising flour. I'm saved.
