Pancakes are a pretty difficult thing to get right. I think they are one of thoose things where you sometimes just get lucky & sometimes don't.

Mmm... I don't really like pancakes, but my mum made some crepe-style pancakes that were freakishly delicious. I guess in a way just really thick crepes, but so good.

Oh, and I checked out your stream for a second, but really do gotta catch up on work and it's too distracting to try and listen to you and the doctors. But the drawing looked good tonight!

hahaha I think we noticed a lurker for a few moments tonight, but my friend Steve thought he had screwed something up- thanks for stopping by!!

sinnamongirl March 20 2010, 05:27:48 UTC

Nope, that was me. I've been lurking since my first BBS so I'm sort of in the habit of it.

this is a good recipe and just remember to put all dry ingredients together and all wet together then mix the two. It is a science experiment so make sure you add the sugar to get the chemical reaction, and let it sit about 3-5 minutes so the chemical reaction can take place before cooking. ( I know you are diabetic but you are eating carbs so I must assume you know what you are doing) If cooking on a stove make sure you cook on med or just slightly higher so not to blacken.

I'm diabetic, but I generally have no problem keeping my numbers in check. I've actually been able to put my diabetes into remission at times, but it kinda keeps coming back like those relatives you just don't like....

Thanks for the tip though, I'll take a look.

Have you ever tried stevia instead of sugar in your recipes? I'm real curious about it; my parents have done pretty well with it now and then but it's hard to figure out cuz it's SO sweet you barely use any.

mad_sketcher March 20 2010, 05:31:49 UTC

Yeah I love Stevia!!! Trader Joes (among others) make a version of Stevia that's "cut" with Lactos so it makes it easier to measure. It's still sweeter than sugar but it's not SOOOOOOO sweet that if you use a drop too much it ruins your dish.

In fact I make chocolate with it quite often (simple recipe - bakers unsweetened choc, butter, stevia - fattening, but no sugar)

Yeah it kicks ass... just look for the cut stuff.

Hmmm... The stream seemed to be acting up a little on my end tonight; there was a weird lag in the chat window. (Granted I was scoping out other sites, too, which may have accounted for the lag.)

mad_sketcher March 20 2010, 05:28:37 UTC

wait wait wait - you were SURFING while watching my livecast???

Fuck no-
:)

hahaha just kidding. I think I can make some changes to the system this weekend to get rid of the "welcome" tag.

starrymolerat March 20 2010, 05:44:30 UTC

Facebook has been known to steal my soul on occasion. I was uploading some photos for the music promoter I help, and that always runs slowly when lots of folks are on.

Your mad skillz can defeat all "welcome" tags!! Ok, maybe it's only worth looking into this one. You have to save some of your time for drawing and sleep and work and all that.
