Did you hear about the midnight rambler

Everybody got to go

Did you hear about the midnight rambler

The one that shut the kitchen door

He don’t give a hoot of warning

Wrapped up in a black cat cloak

He don’t go in the light of the morning

He split the time the cock’rel crows

“Midnight Rambler” by The Rolling Stones

If you are going to buy blueberries, you have to make blueberry pancakes.  Make your own pancake mix, it is worth the extra five minutes.  Making your own mix will ensure that you produce light, fluffy, beautiful cakes.  Also, make sure to not over mix your batter, over-mixing will make them dense and similar to bisquick cakes.

Ingredients:

2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon kosher salt
2 tablespoons sugar
2 eggs, separated
3  cups buttermilk
4 tablespoons melted butter, cooled slightly
Butter for greasing the griddle
2 cups of blueberries

Directions:

1.    Heat griddle to 350° F
2.    In a large bowl, combine all of the dry ingredients, whisk with a fork to mix
3.    In a small bowl, whisk the egg whites and butter milk
4.    In another small bowl, whisk the egg yolks and melted butter
5.    Add the buttermilk mixture with the egg yolk mixture, mix until combined
6.    Pour the buttermilk/egg mixture on top of the dry mix
7.    Whisk the ingredients until the batter just comes together, LUMPS ARE OKAY!
8.    Lightly grease the griddle with butter
9.    Ladle batter onto the griddle, place blueberries on top
10.    Wait for bubbles to form on the edges of the pancake, then flip
11.    Cook for about 3 more minutes

So baby please kill me

Oh baby don’t kill me

But don’t bring that ghost round to my door

I don’t wanna see him anymore

Please kill me

Oh baby don’t kill me

Just don’t bang on about yesterday

I wouldn’t know about that anyway
