Goings On
Well what a weekend! It was fantastic. I got loads done, won two card competitions, won a prize in the raffle, met some great people and learned lots of new things.
I missed the girls a lot, but they were happy with Daddy. I've been letting the TV babysit a bit today as I am so anxious to finish all the projects I started! I've got the Wonderpets and Dora themes in my head, God help me! I suppose it could be worse... a few more years and we'll be following the Hannah Montana tour!
The husbands birthday was on Friday, so before I went and left him on his birthday I whipped up one of his favourite breakfasts - potato pancakes and bacon! This is such a simple and delicious way to use leftover pancakes. I assume everyone knows how to cook bacon (rashers)! ;-)
Potato Pancakes
Ingredients:
- 3 cups leftover mashed potato
- 1 granny smith apple, grated
- 3/4 cup flour
- 2 eggs
- 2-3 scallions, chopped
- butter and oil for frying
Mix the potato, apple, eggs, flour and scallions together in a bowl. You may need to season with salt and pepper depending on how seasoned your mash was.
Heat the butter and oil in a skillet over medium heat.
Form the potato mixture into patties as big or small as you wish. Fry until golden brown on one side. Flip and repeat. They should have a bit of a crunch and a nice golden colour.
Serve with Creme Fraiche or sour cream. Delicious!
P.S. Am testing a new ad system, so if you notice funny keyword links within my posts, that's what it is! Thanks for bearing with me until I figure it out!
