12/20/2010 Mon After Sleep

Mood:
I am tired, pissed off & So not a happy camper. I got a call today from the VA saying they never received any request for funding. So that mean I have to take out a student loan, & then hope that the VA will back pay it.





Life:
So filling out the forms again to mail them this time instead of applying online.  I have done nothing today, I did make pancake, but then I asked Clay to cook them. I have no get up & go.

Cooking:
I made blueberry pancakes. I love them We have them every time we are at moms on Sunday for brunch. Fluffy pancakes with juicy blueberries are so my comfort food now. You whisk together 1c flour, 1tb of backing powder, & 1/2 a teaspoon of sale, (I usually leave out the salt because I use salted butter). Then in a separate container whisk together 1c milk, 1 egg & 1tb of vanilla extract, I then add the wet to the dry whisking about 10 times to get everything just together, but not over mixed. I let the mixture stand for 5mins the fold in the 1c blueberries (or as much as I want, sometimes 2cs) into the batter.  I let it stand another 3-4mins while the pan gets hot. I then spray veggi oil over the pan, use a 1/4c measuring cup to poor the batter in the pan. I cook on med till the edges brown, (my batter does not bubble on the edges), then flip. I repeat till the batter is gone. I have a warming plat on my stove & use a tea towel with a little water to keep them from drying out. I don't know if they would if I just put the towel over them without the water or not so why chance it right? If you do not have said warming function, a heating pad rapped in a another tea towel will work too.
