Valentine's Day Love

Happy Valentine's Day, Everyone!

Here's a quick and easy way to love up your kids on special mornings.  Heart pancakes!

When you make the pancake batter, reserve about 1/2 cup in another bowl.  Add a few drops of red food coloring to the reserved batter.  Then put the red batter in a plastic Ziploc baggie and snip off a tiny corner so you can squeeze a small amount of the batter out.  (Or, if you're fancy and have one of those tools for cake decorating, use that.  I don't even know what those things are called!)

Pour the regular batter onto the griddle.  Immediately after the batter is poured, use the red batter in the Ziploc to draw a heart on the pancake.  Then cook as usual.

Watch as your children squeal with delight when they see their heart pancakes!  :)

Hope everyone has a wonderful day!
