Pancakes, Y'all... - Page 5

About to start putting together our pancake dinner.
Just came on here to check the translation from American into English (temperature) on Jinx's bacon suggestion.

Have sausagemeat to make into patties - not sure how well they'll work out. Mum's in charge of the frying. She doesn't trust me not to ruin the hob.

So I'm pancaking and baconing before they get home, then she's sorting eggs & sausage.

I hope to report a successful outcome!

Forgot to report back!
We had a nom nom nom time.
I made the patties too thick, but the bacon worked a treat. Mum fried the eggs and did so very well.

All gorgeous!

Some time this week we are having buttermilk pancakes again, with cherries in kirsch. Part of my gift from Dana? Nope, already scoffed those ones. But Mum enjoyed them so much that when I found a little bottle of kirsch for sale I bought it. I doubt the tinned cherries have any real capacity to suck up the kirsch, but they've been soaking for over a week now.

Even if we only spoon the cherries out, then Mum can swig back the remaining mixture
