Pancake Wishes and Maple Syrup Dreams...

A family favorite is pancakes with homemade maple syrup.  The pancakes we all love are easily made with Red Rose Flour.  The difficult part is getting the flour.  It comes from my home town of Logan, Utah.  Even when we lived in Utah we would have to remember to ask Bobbi to bring some to us in Provo whenever we were running low.  A tradition whenever we stay at Bobbi's house is to have wonderful buttermilk pancakes for breakfast in the mornings.  Living here makes getting the flour nearly impossible.  I always bring back one bag after each summer so we really use it sparingly...I have to admit, I even forget about it.
The other day Jack asked if we could have pancakes for breakfast the next morning.  When I said we could if I had time to make them he suggested I just make them while I am still in my jammies because that's what Bobbi does.  He made it sound so easy I thought I would even wear my jammies that remind him of Bobbi and make sure I woke early enough to make his pancake wishes come true.  He was thrilled..and he even noticed I had my "Bobbi jammies" on.
Sam even included his Commander Cody in the pancake breakfast..I think he looooved the special breakfast too.
