Making pancakes for Sunday morning breakfast seems to be a popular way for Dad's to bond with their kids along with giving hard working Mom's a break from cooking breakfast. The only memory I have of my Father cooking was of him making pancakes every Sunday morning.
A church I once attended holds a pancake breakfast every Shrove ( Pancake ) Tuesday. A member of the congregation, a Dad, always volunteers to make the pancakes for the kids. The entire church membership adults and children alike, look forward to his pancakes. Children run out of church immediately after service and into the parish hall to stand in line for these one of a kind creations. These pancakes are any shape but round. The kids ask to have their names spelled out in batter, their favorite cartoon character, sports team logo and anything else their little minds can imagine. This Dad stands there for hours with his bottles of batter, ready to face any challenge given to him.
The only thing I ever made with pancake batter was Mickey Mouse and I was proud of that. Now along comes an even more ambitious Dad that makes pancakes in three dimensional shapes. Imagine a dinosaur pancake that the child can assemble like a puzzle before eating. How Cool!!!!
Check out his book OMG Pancakes - 75 Cool Creations Your Kids Will Love by Jim Belosic ( Amazon $2.19 new ) or his web site http://www.jimspancakes.com . What a great gift for any pancake making Dad this Christmas.
