Feeding Their Creativity




Last night we talked about making pancakes for breakfast. Cody excitedly said he wanted to make blue and green pancakes.
This morning, when Brit and Cody were ready for breakfast, we headed for the kitchen, washed our hands, and made a batch of "Gina's Perfect Pancakes" ~They really are good! Then we separated the batter into two small bowls for Cody and one for Brit. She decided to add Reese's Pieces to her batter. Cody added food coloring to his. While I was cooking his blue pancake, he got another idea! Let's add Sour Skittles! I thought it smelled like Fruity Pebbles as the Skittles heated up. Britney and Cody thought it smelled like blueberries.
Brit's batter was swirled with orange, yellow and brown dye and made a huge pancake! Hers smelled like you would expect it to...a Reese's Peanut Butter Cup. She decided that if she ever makes Reese's pancakes again, she'll reduce the amount of candy. It was too peanut buttery and stuck to the roof of her mouth.
Cody decided that blue pancakes and green pancakes with Sour Skittles are awesome and couldn't wait to show off his creations.
I opted for chocolate chip pancakes!
