Rave review

I tried out a new pancake recipe this morning that I got out of the Amish cookbook I bought during our stay in Ohio. William typically praises things by saying, "That wasn't too bad." or "I sort of liked it." He's all about playing his cards close to his vest, that one. But these pancakes got the following rave reviews:

"These taste like unleavened!"--Uncle Larry's unleavened pancakes that we ate while staying with them for the DUB a couple years ago have been William's standard for pancake excellence ever since.

"If the Days of Unleavened Bread were called the Days of Leavened Bread, I would have the best time of my life eating these pancakes every day!"

"If this was all the food we had in the house, I would still eat these!"--hmm...I'm sure this made sense to him?

"What if the Days of Unleavened Bread were called the Days of Pancakes! Then we could just eat pancakes every day--Amish pancakes!"

So...I guess he liked them. Amish pancakes may replace unleavened ones as the pinnacle of pancake success.
