    Kayak Jack?

    Do you have to use 196 beans, or will 200 beans be okay? What if I just dump some beans in a pot and hope it's close to the right number? I'm so confused!

Somehow, they just weren't as good as when my Aunt Jemima used to make them. May she always be remembered and rest in peace. Today's pancakes finished the box and I bought a...

    A Reusable ( NOT ) Paper Towel

    Interesting, but, for somewhere near the same price you can get the 16"x24" blue surgical towels that last just about forever.
