Breakfast for Dinner?
The other day we had a tough decision to make: What were we going make for dinner? When we are at a loss for ideas, or want to whip up something easy after a hard day on the job, we switch up our menu a bit. We have breakfast for dinner! The kids love it, and usually it's pancakes and sausage that are what's on the menu. Other times we make waffles or omelettes. To round our your meal you can serve cateloupe, apples, or oranges on the side for good nutrition balance.
Usually, we make our pancakes or waffles just like most other people, from a box of pancake mix. But on this particular evening we were all out of mix, so we 'kicked the fridge' (or actually the cupboard) and made our pancake batter from scratch. We came up with our own little recipe after doing a little research on the internet.
Great Food Sites
There are some great food blogs and recipe websites on the Internet. As I started thinking about setting up a website devoted to food, I knew that there was going to be no way that I could ever hope to compete with some of the more established sites for traffic. My only goal is to have a little corner of the web were people with some of the same food interests can share what does, and what does not work for them in the kitchen.
There are established recipe databases with thousands of entries, and other sites with professional photography. These websites have been around for many years, have an established base readers and are well entrenched with the search engines. At the time, it seemed to me that it was a hopeless task to create something from scratch. But, I am slowly becoming more comfortable with sharing what we run into when we are in the kitchen. My only regret is that I do not get more time to write about what we encounter.
Got Bored Kids?
Mix up a little flour, water, salt, yeast, and sugar. Plus a dash of olive oil and give them something fun to do, make pizza dough!
Kids love to stick their hands into anything squishy. There is something magical about pizza and bread dough that make kids just want to dive right in knead the dough to their heart's content. Arguably, for most kids, and probably most adults too, pizza is their favorite food. What better combination is there to get your kids busy in the kitchen learning how to cook and eating their favorite food?
