This is something that I cherish. Once in a friends home I came across this blessing, and took it down in shorthand … it says something I like to live with Oh Thou, who dwellest in so many homes, possess Thyself of this. Bless the life that is sheltered here. Grant that trust and peace and comfort abide within, and that love and life and usefulness may go out from this home forever. — Claudia Alta Taylor Johnson

    strings of flats

    Strings of Flats

    Stacks of these griddlecakes were eaten in the old lumbering camps where they were known both as "Flannel Cakes" and as "Strings of Flats," or "Flatcars," presumably for the railroad flatcars that took the lumber to market.

    1 cup sifted all-purpose flour
    1 tablespoon baking powder
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    2 tablespoons granulated sugar
    2 eggs
    1 cup milk
    2 tablespoons melted butter

    Sift flour, baking powder, salt and sugar into a mixing bowl.

    In a separate container, beat eggs until light, then stir in milk and melted butter. With as few strokes as possible, blend egg mixture in with the dry ingredients. Pour batter onto a hot, greased griddle and cook until both sides are nicely browned.

    Serve at once with butter and warm maple syrup or honey.

            milkless pancakes or waffles

            Milkless Pancakes or Waffles

            This batter will not store well, so use it all or freeze the leftovers for another day. They are good reheated in the microwave or oven. This is a lifesaver if you are out of milk or cannot tolerate milk.

            2 cups biscuit or pancake mix
            1 egg, beaten
            1/2 cup vegetable oil
            1 cup club soda or ginger ale

            Blend egg and oil in medium bowl. Pour in club soda or ginger ale. Fold in biscuit mix. It should be slightly lumpy. Heat griddle to 425 degrees F or use a heavy frying pan over medium heat. Make small or large pancakes. Batter can also be used on a heated waffle iron.
