I read this this morning and identified completely:

"Being an adult is only an illusion. When it comes down to it I'm not sure any of us ever really grow up. We simply grow taller and hairier. Sometimes, I feel amazed that I am allowed to drive a car, or that I have not been found out for drinking in the pub.
Beneath the veneer of adulthood, beneath the layers of experience we accrue as we the years march stoically onward, we are all still children, with scraped knees and snotty noses, who need our parents ...and our friends".

Excerpt from "The Chalk Man" by C.J. Tudor

For the first 44 years plus of my life, I've never liked pancakes. Put it this way: If the parents made pancakes (which they do EVERY. FUCKING. SUNDAY), I would never eat them, no matter how much Dad 2 would try to get me to.

For whatever reason, I decided to try making this recipe I found online for pancakes for one. Loved them. Then I found a recipe for banana pancakes and I fell in love with them.

I guess now I dislike pancakes unless I make them myself.

And whipped cream!

 

I'm not exactly sure what she does, but my wife's chocolate chip pancakes beat any I've ever had in a restaurant. I don't even use syrup on them.
