You gotta try it!

You know me and Ree, the Pioneer Woman, are super tight.***

Yeah, we're practically best friends.

That's probably why I'm such a great cook 'cuz were such good friends.

Yep...

I'm a great cook.

My husband once got in HUGE trouble once when he remarked at a party that he 'didn't know why we have a kitchen.' It's true. Embarrassingly true!

So, let's talk about pancakes.

Mainly, these kind of pancakes:

The kind that come out of a can. 

Wait!

Stay with me on this!

They were actually pretty good!

You spray them into the pan and you can make all kinds of funny shapes.

I chose circles.

I'm a circle choosing kinda girl.

This guy loved the spray pancakes.

He was a letter and swirls kinda guy.

That S was tough to flip.

I mean...

Don't knock it 'til you've tried it!

Pancakes out of a can aren't half bad.

Sigh.

I promise I'm going to learn to cook one of these days. 

My poor Mom...

She's an amazing cook. 

It's all very vexing. 

Here are the things she unfortunately didn't pass down to me: her long legs, her cooking skills, her dancing skills and her sense of direction.  

Basically if you see a stubby legged woman feeding her family peanut butter and jellies for dinner with a  'no dancing allowed' sign on her back that looks lost it's probably me.
