Breakfast on Saturday mornings may be be a symbol for our marriage of 46 plus years.
We have pancakes, often blueberry pancakes, and we enjoy breakfast together as we always do on the weekends.
However, Jim makes his own Mrs. Butterworth Buttermilk Complete (just-add-water) pancakes. After he puts on the buttery spread, he pours on (I mean pours on) Spartan artificial butter and maple-flavored syrup.
I use my Purdue extension recipe for Better Baking Mix that is a combination of whole wheat flour, oatmeal, and white flour. I have real butter with real maple syrup--delicious!
Jim says, however, and I quote, "We do our own things, but I do it so much better." Humpf! I don't think so!
I vote for Mary's Better Baking Mix -- it's got to be healthier and tastier than Mrs. Butterworth's, but bravo to Jim to fixing his own pancakes.
