Pancakes!
One of the best pancake recipes, ever! Martha Stewart style. Buttermilk Pancakes. Just made them for the boys. They are the fluffiest, yummiest looking pancakes I have ever seen. Some day I'll be like the Pioneer Woman and post step by step pictures.
For now, the key ingredients are buttermilk, real buttermilk, not the powdered stuff you can buy at the store and not the conversion style (adding lemon juice to milk). I bought a container of buttermilk last week at the store to make Red Velvet Cupcakes for the boys on Valentine's Day. Had lots of leftover so I thought this would be the perfect thing to make on this beautiful, windy, but sunny, Saturday morning. The other key ingredients/points, hot griddle, or in my case, a hot pan. It's not on high but Med/High on my stove. The pancakes cook fast and can burn so you've got to keep an eye on them. When the bubbles are across the pancakes, time to flip.
Here's the direct link to the recipe: http://http://www.marthastewart.com/recipe/best-buttermilk-pancakes-by-martha

First post
First, I need to thank my friend, Steve L., for coming up with the name of my blog. I'm so new at this and this is going to look so bad at first so bear (bare?) with me. See what I mean. I'm creating this blog for myself. If someone else enjoys it, great! I have 2 wonderful boys who are the center and meaning of my life. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm supposed to put myself first in life. I'll let you know how that's working. Just not me. Someday, right?
Anyway, this blog will hopefully have my beautiful pictures on it that I love to take with my fancy, schmancy camera (not reallly, but kind of). I look like a professional news photographer when I have my gear on. If they only knew I have no idea what I'm doing, ok, I let it out now.

I love to organize so I may post some of my tips, ideas and completed projects, along with links to my favorite blogs as well.
Cooking, baking, that's me too. Recipes my appear here and there too.
This is a work in progress, so enjoy!
So, here goes. I hope to come back tomorrow. We'll see. :)
