This weekend, younger brother, Todd (I used to call him little, but at 6'1", I don't think he's that little) and his wife Andrea, came to visit. I am so happy to have them, especially being in the middle of the holiday's, and missing the Thanksgiving Day festivities with the whole family.
Mom sent Christmas gifts with them - which, everyone knows I don't wait - so I immediately opened them. I was so excited to get a monka (sp?) pan. Monka pans are very heavy cast iron with wells to make doughnut-like pancakes. They're swedish, and since Mom's family is swedish with very strong traditions Mom used to make them. Mom had a monka pan, and Nana and Mom used to make us swedish pancakes around the holidays. I love them!
This was my first time EVER making them, and as you can see - the first batch - not so good, but getting better. I'll soon master the technique.
