Ginormous Pancakes, here we come!


Yesterday, during my quest to find some Bermuda shorts I stumbled upon a kitchen supply store. As I walked in, my senses were overwhelmed, flooded and inundated. I could feel my eyes widening. It was as if I was surrounded by all the kitchen stuff I could want. There was even a chef's jacket, black AND white....so cool. Then my thoughts turned to "what do I need" and then my thoughts went back to my mission to find the colossal pancake turner. Now I was focused. Looking down each Isle was distracting b/c I kept seeing cool gadgets that would be really awesome to have but I knew I had keep my eyes peeled for what I was looking for...then I saw a wooden handle and something shiny attached to it. As time slowed down, all other things became blurry and the item at hand was in focus, there it was. A stainless steal, perforated turner. It was perfect, short wooden handle and everything. The weight felt great and visions of Ginormous pancakes came before my mind's eye. Then looking up I saw something. It was a smaller version but with a beveled sharpened edge. Immediately thoughts of Dave cooking his scrapple came to mind and I knew what I had to do...I had to buy it as well...for the sake of my husband, of course.
As I floated along with glee in the various isles, I wondered if they had any cast iron. As my journey around the store was ending, I came upon it. A display shelf of LODGE cookware. An entire Display of it!! I won't go into the details of what I saw but it was good, so many things I'd love to have were there!
Now I can be at ease and know I can make ginormous pancakes whenever I feel like it!
