But first, the Christmas tree showed up on the Advent Calendar, lit and ready to go.
And here are the cranberries, from Misfits, and Canadian, which seems strange to a person living in the cranberry state, but the NJ cranberries all seem to be contracted to big companies to make drinks and other cranberry adjacent products. Anyway, these are very good.
And pancakes, which the cookbook calls crepes, which they are not, crepes being so thin as to be transparent,and these are thin, but definitely pancakes the way I like them. I'm not a fan of the ones that look like athletic shoe soles.
And for once I did let the batter rest for an hour, and found that is a very good idea.
First layer of cranberry sauce
Then a couple more, and a drawing of molasses on top. Very good afternoon tea yesterday, with a pot of tea. Celebratory.
