  1. Beth, the pancakes sound good, but the blueberry syrup sounds even better. I love blueberries. Before we moved our stateside children came home and helped us pack some things and they took home with them each a truck/trunk load of things. Judy raises several different berries. She brought a couple of berry syrups for our pancakes one morning.

    1. The bought fruit syrups are good, but the homemade syrups from fresh berries are even better. It is well worth the time and trouble to make the fresh.

      1. We doth this too. Supper pancakes, next morning one leftover pancake with scrambled eggs. funny isn’t that – we’re all pancake fans! Sometimes I think they must be what is spoken of as cakes in the Old Testament, fine flour, oil, honey…

        1. Have you ever heard of hoe cakes? Those were cooked over an open campfire using the common hoe–a weed cutter. We are so spoiled to always have to have a fry pan.

          1. I’ve heard the name, hoe cakes, but didn’t know what they were. Thanks, Beth! Yes, we are spoiled and some of us – like me – still complain.
