Never Trust a Terminator! |
by Fëanor |
When I first found the recipe I'm using now for pancakes, I noticed in the comments some people suggesting adding vanilla extract, or replacing certain amounts of certain ingredients with vanilla extract. I considered trying this adjustment myself, but never quite got up the nerve. Then in the episode of Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles that I watched yesterday, John mentioned that Cameron's pancakes were really good, and Cameron said she had added a teaspoon of vanilla extract to the pancake recipe on the box. So when I made pancakes for poppy and myself this morning, I decided to give it a shot, and threw in a teaspoon of vanilla extract. It... didn't really work all that well. The pancakes were still edible, but the vanilla flavor was a little too strong, and they seemed even cakier than usual. Poppy had suggested I start with just half a teaspoon and, as usual, she was right.
Ah, well. I've learned my lesson: never trust a Terminator! |
