Every Batch Made From Scratch

464 Flares 464 Flares ×

Every batch made from scratch isn’t always the case in my household. I have no flippin’ idea when the baby snatcher broke into my house and swapped out my independent boy with this imma gonna scream if you even look at something work related terror. Oh how I adore naptime!

Made from scratch toddler breakfast in less than 5 minutes #AJLilGriddlesCG

I have a secret to cope with the insanity that comes with having a child that hasn’t stopped since he was 9 months old. You think I’m exaggerating? This kid thinks falling off chairs and down flights of stairs are normal sports for toddlers. The toddler control secret you’ve all been waiting for is… FOOD! Now I’m not Aunt Jemima or anything, but I do know the way into a man’s heart is through his stomach.

Confession- I give Michael food he can feed to himself so I can get 10 minutes to check my emails.  Just. Five. More. Minutes! What’s that? You need more food? Have the box and go eat!

My made from scratch secret

Aunt Jemima Lil' Griddles Mini Pancakes- Every batch made from scratch. #AJLilGriddlesCG {Horrible Housewife}

He loves these oh so adorable pancakes so much that he thinks I’m the best mommy EVER when he gets them. What am I going to do when he gets older and wises up? I imagine the conversation will go a lot like this.

Him- What do you mean you don’t slave away in the kitchen so my pancakes are made from scratch? 
Me- How many hands do I have, sweetie? These pancakes really are made from scratch!
Him- Don’t lie! I watched you take them out of the freezer!
Me- Sigh.

 

How does one explain to him the pancakes I pulled from the freezer have real ingredients like eggs, milk, and sugar in them? *Sigh* Until that argument comes about I will save myself a disaster of a kitchen and time I don’t have in the first place! Be sure you sign up for a free coupon to be mailed directly to your house so you can be Super Mom for a while! (While supplies last. Select states only.)

I'm not perfect and I'm OK with it. I pick my battles so I have ammunition when it is something I really want. I still can't believe Michael takes me out in public because I have zero tact and curse like a sailor.

    They look delicious! I love that all of the pancakes are exactly the same shape and size, that doesn’t happen when I make mine. I LOVE Aunt Jemima, she visits our house regularly.

    You’ve just taught me something.
    I’ve got to stock up on snacks to keep my son busy ;)
    I love Aunt Jemima for me. But he can’t have pancakes due to his milk allergy :(

    My two year old loves these because they are perfect sized for his little hands. Now if I could just get him to stop getting them out of the freezer and trying to eat them frozen…
