Bacon Pancakes
So I have been babysitting twins for about two weeks now and let me tell children are a handful. I feel like I have been shoved right smack in the middle of motherhood without actually going through the whole being pregnant and giving birth phase. It is a tiring job being a mummy and I give respect to all you mummies out there. But on the other side kids are amazing. I fall in love with the girls a little more each day. When they smile, when they turn, when they fuss for attention its beautiful, I look forward to having my own babies someday.
So today’s recipe is pretty easy. A little mix of sweet and salty. Its not a recipe really but more of a how to. Just make your pancake batter as you usually do then pour it on top of cooked bacon and that’s it. HAPPY COOKING!!
