For nearly two years now, all the pancakes made and served in our house have been green. No, they're not spoiled and don't have mold - it's food coloring! See, one day for St. Patrick's Day, mommy made some green pancakes for me. Well, green is my favorite color. So from then on I begged for all my pancakes to be green. Mommy usually makes a large batch on a weekend, then puts most of them in the freezer. During the week, it's easy for Grangie to take out just a few, heat them in the microwave or toaster, then serve them to me and Madeline. Yep, Madeline LOVES green pancakes. In fact, I don't think she's ever eaten normal-colored ones!
Well, Daddy was telling his coworker about our green pancakes. He told Daddy that at their house they put a colored batter in a squeeze bottle and draw pictures on their traditional round pancakes. And that got Mommy's wheels rolling....!
That night at the store we bought a couple squeeze bottles. With all this pancake talk, I wanted some, so we decided to have "breakfast for dinner" that night. Armed with a few squeeze bottles, some pancake mix, a bunch of bowls and spatulas, and a griddle, Mommy and I got to work!
We made the batter, then added colors. I got to stir them all up!
Mommy poured them into the squeeze bottles, and went to town!
I bet you'll never guess what she's making....
Mommy is SOOOO good!
Check out these garbage trucks that are cooking!
WooHoo! Garbage truck pancakes, complete with little garbage cans!
Even though we only had two squeeze bottles,
we couldn't leave Madeline out. So we made her some ladybugs!

It was the best ever!
