The Consequences of Dreaming
I saw a recipe for German pancakes yesterday at Salt and Chocolate. Hm, says I, that sounds good. So, I bookmarked it, and went about my day.
A day which included a child who did not nap until we were in the car to go to a farm to have a hayride and pick a pumpkin with some friends. A day which included a child slipping and falling into a rotten pumpkin, and having to go on the return hayride wearing nothing but a pull up. A day which was very late, and by the time we got back, I was no longer thinking of anything involving pancakes.
Or was I?
The last dream I recall from before I woke up was me wandering around Racher from Yestertime’s house looking for her, so I could ask if the skillet I wanted to borrow was oven safe. So I could make a German pancake.
FINE SUBCONSCIOUS, I GET IT. Although why my subconscious felt the need to bring Racher in on it, when I’m pretty sure she has never talked to me about pancakes, German or otherwise, I have no idea.
Regardless, I made a German pancake this morning, much to Brandus’ confusion (“What are you doing?” “IM MAKING A PANCAKE DAMMIT.”)
It was yummy. I tastes a little bit like funnel cake and a little bit like french toast.
Also, it’s insanely easy, which I am a huge fan of.

Is this AKA panacooken? My Minnesota roommate from first year in grad school used to talk about these all the time. Looks yum!

The “insanely easy” part appeals to me. I could use some recipe success.

A hayride in nothing but a pullup? Are you sure that wasn’t actually in the dream, because that sounds pretty nightmarish.

Pretty sure one of those fancy tupperware things will keep them warm for the trip down.
