Good evening folks

Thank you! I'm a little worried about worms and coccidia from the wildbirds pooping in the water, but otherwise I think they're doing ok. Attitudes are generally content and cheerful.

Maybe a lid of some kind is in order to keep the deposits from hitting the water? Could you maybe fasten something to the top?

We call them Dutch Babies & fill them with fruit & cream.

I like them that way as well.

They are very easy to make. Basically you melt about 4oz of butter in a deep pie dish then pour your batter in. The batter rises in funny shapes as it cooks

That is not what Mrs BY Bob makes. She has a special extremely shallow pan and they do not rise at all. They come out 5 to 10 mm think depending on what is in them

I am intrigued by both approaches and it is inspiring me to try making pancakes - I have never made pancakes before!

Let me know if you need a recipe. I'm sure Mrs BY Bob would be willing to share.

I would love a recipe. I have been using the time on a very boring work conference call to surf the internet and I have already learned the difference between a crepe and a pancake. A pancake rises and is thick, a crepe is thin and doesn't rise.

Dutch pancakes are very thin and crepe like
