I called my friend Dawn yesterday to remind her today the Kiwanis would be having pancake day, all day long. She said she would bring the peanut butter, I said I would bring real forks.

Dawn is orginally from Arkansas, where peanut butter on pancakes is apparently the norm. I had never heard of it, but I am glad I did. For 5 bucks we got three buttermilk pancakes smothered in melted butter, two pieces of greasy sausage and a drink. We parked her 2 month old daughter in her purambulator and smeared on the peanut butter while they were still hot and poured on the syrup and yum!

I wore the tightst pants I could today so I wouldn't go back for seconds. I am so ready for a nap now. 

   are they that bad? Pancake with peanut butter, i mean.

Well Wulf, I ain't got it yet, but I am looking.

Now the pancakes with peanut butter, hell yeah, they are da bomb, Esp. when they are good and hot, remember it is peanut BUTTAH, and you can do lots of things with it.

 

Now Katie really has my q-rosity up about how she eats them, perhaps she could expand on the process. (stomach growls)

But you know I was so bummed out last week and stressing and I was headed to Charleston on friday and it was like "Gloom and doom" all down the road to Walkertown, North Carolina and I stopped at this Wendy's that was bad in the weeds with the lunch crowd and I ordered a Chrispy Chicken Sammich and ended up with a Jr. Cheese Burger and I have been try to avoid red meat and I didn't even feel like going up and complaining about it so I ate it and DAMN! in ten minutes I felt like a million dollars. I had that MSG back  in me and I was like "Hell Yeah! Let's go the Charleston!" It was a Miricle.

And please promise me you will go see Quinceanera. I think thats how you spel it, it is a tear jerker.

And Katie, would you send me a jar of Vegimite? Does it come in jars? Please, pretty please?

charleston where?

i just mailed it today before work so i hope only a few days before you git it

"Quinceanera" what  is this ?

[Katie77]

Truman, firstly the pancakes......sprinkle the sugar all over the dry pancake, then squeeze the lemon juice over the sugar.....roll up, and eat..........

So where did you learn about vegemite?.......it is our favourite spread on toast or fresh bread here......

I did hear that they tried to introduce it over there, but it didnt work, because the yanks spread it on their bread or toast, like jam or jelly.......it is far too strong a taste for that......it is only spread very very lightly, just a touch of it, gives a lovely savoury flavour.....

Every house in australia would have a jar of vegemite.....and I would be happy to send you some.

I heard of it from a song back in 1982, who sang it now I wonder:

"I said do you speak-a my language,
and he jus' smiled and gave me a Vegimite sandwich
I come from a land down under...."

I will try the pancakes this week, it might take some practice.

"Quinceanera" is a movie that is out now that centeres around a Mexicano family in Echo Park in Los Angeles. The main character is about to turn 15 and in her culture had a ceremony called a Quinceanera, the last "n" actually is an "eneay" with the tilda over it, but I dunno how to do that.

Anyway, her cousin, played by Jessie Garcia (who is from Riverton, Wyoming of all places) is gay and forced out of the house to live with an old uncle. It is partly in Spanish with American subtutles (I am sorry but I don't live in England)  and it is a real tear jerker. I highly recommend it.
