Easy One!

Ok, so I took an easy option this week. It's been a crazy week. Lewis has had the flu this week so not much time for extra stuff. So I made bisquick pancakes, BUT I added.....drumroll.....mayonnaise? Yeah, about 1/2 cup of mayo. The recipe already calls for 2 eggs, and I have learned that you can substitute mayo for eggs. So maybe you could just add another egg and get the same results. I don't know. Anyway, the pancakes were alot more moist and fluffy so this gets an A+ from all 3 of us. Lewis says he wants mayo in them from now on. An easy kitchen wrecker week, but successful. Although, I cannot flip a pancake worth a toot, I only had one casualty. So just a twist I found to try on a well known pancake. Hopefully, back to something new next week.

SHUT THE FRONT DOOR!!

Okay, I am getting way off schedule. This week was a great success! Snickers Brownies! Like I said...SHUT THE FRONT DOOR! THESE ARE AMAZING! I left out the peanuts because I do not like peanuts. It was great without them, but if you like peanuts, throw 'em in. I knew where to find everything in the grocery store this time. This was my first experience with marshmallow cream. It made me very happy! Like I was stirring clouds. Okay, that made me sound crazy, but I am in love with the stuff. This is very rich, but amazing! It was great with coffee or milk!
