I haven't posted in quite a while for a combination of reasons: I've been waiting to hear about a job prospect, then I planned to post on how it serendipitously came about; I've been madly editing my novel so I can send it out to agents and publishers; and I've had a few small wonderings and gratitudes, but self-doubt has told me they weren't important enough to write a post about. So, now I'm here and I'm going to try to ignore all that.
This morning I'm going to expound the virtues of having a go-to pancake recipe. I have mine pretty much memorised so I know at a glance if I have all the ingredients. I can assemble it without much effort, even before coffee or mimosas are made in the morning. And, I know intuitively how long the pancakes cook so I rarely burn them anymore. It has taken years to get to this stage, but until I thought about it just now I didn't really appreciate what a useful thing having a personal pancake recipe is. Now today's holiday Monday pancakes are just about done, so I'm off to enjoy them. Happy Labour Day, Aussies!
