I did indeed make pancake mix this afternoon, with some help from the short people. Lovebug really REALLY likes sifting, which is awesome cause I hate it, lol. But yeah, he has this cute three year old monkey dance he does to his own rhythm.
Two things I'd forgotten about making pancake mix: 1) it takes a DOUBLE recipe to fill the gallon jar I keep it in. This was all right for today as I didn't have enough ingredients for a double shot anyway, but it's something to remember. 2) the dry milk needs to be ground up a little finer before adding it to the recipe, as it refuses to be sifted otherwise.
After I'd added everything to the container, I needed it all shook up and mixed together, so I handed it to Kidzilla and told her to shake shake shake senora. And since I didn't know enough of the words by myself I put it on, and we had a little dance/mix the pancake stuff party.
It is fucking impossible to be in or stay in a bad mood while this song is on. Especially when there's a floofy haired six year old jumping up and down with her Daddy in the kitchen to it.
Also, I think I need to gather up all the Squire kids and have an afternoon of Games You Played When You Were Five. Lets just say
cell23 and I were playing Red Light Green Light with Kidzilla and during the rounds where she was the light, it veered into bloody contact sport territory. Clearly the way to deal with this is to get more grownups to play and see who loses teeth. See also freeze tag and dodgeball. Hell, with our usual crowd and with the addition of a bit of alcohol we could get a mean game of Duck Duck MOTHERFUCKING GOOSE going on... XD Anyone game?
