What you having on your pancakes ?

No, Bob, no! Adding raisins where other things would be better is a running theme in our house. I'm not the pro-raisin contingent, as you might guess.

We'll have lemon and sugar, cream and fruit, sweet spreads and cream...a mix of traditional and made-up combinations. We have American pancakes (I am that contingent) pretty frequently, so thin pancakes as they're known in our house are a special treat.
