Flippin Pancakes!

If you're anything like me, and remember its Pancake day that morning whilst doing the school run. You have a packed out day, yet you need to have time to get out the mixing bowl and just whisk up the pancake batter. And apparently flipping a pancake successfully is not as easy as it looks, the right pancake mix, a hot pan, speed and practice are what’s needed... just what you need on a school night!

There's a couple of options, my friend who has four children, makes them pancakes the weekend before, so they can make it a more relaxed event, waking up in there own time, lazing in there PJs, whilst you have time to prepare the mix and the kids can take it in turns to flip, drop, reshape, add all there toppings and eat. If you do this mid morning by the time you've finished it will be lunch time and you can just offer savoury fillings - two meals in one.

Alternatively, cheat... Nip down to your local shop, buy some ready made pancakes, this way all your kiddies can follow there usual routine after school, get changed, homework, tea and pancakes for pudding ... they can still have fun adding there own toppings.

Good luck!

What Parents Really Want

Just because you love two things doesn’t mean they work well together. Take beautifully manicured finger nails and a day with Kim & Aggie.

Two favourites that actually do work together: cake and babies. My Nappy Cake was started by two Mum’s doing what they love best (eating cake and having babies). But when your tummy becomes a petting zoo and your bum’s expanding faster than your tummy, it’s time to take stock.

These totally indulgent cakes are the non edible variety and are made using ingredients which include premium nappies, gorgeous baby wear and cute fluffy teddies – perfect for little ones arrival.Unlike most baby gifts, this gift is totally practical, Mummy & Daddy friendly and what’s more gift giving couldn’t be more fun!
