GINGERBREAD PANCAKES

1 1/3 cups pancake mix
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 cup molasses
1 1/4 - 1 1/2 cups water depending on how thick you like your batter

Cook on hot, greased griddle or pan until bubbly and then turn over.

LEMON SAUCE

1/2 cup sugar
1 Tablespoon cornstarch
pinch of ground nutmeg
1 cup hot water
2 Tablespoons butter or margarine
1/2 teaspoon grated lemon rind, fresh or dried
2 Tablespoons lemon juice

In medium sauce pan mix sugar, cornstarch and nutmeg. Gradually add in water. Cook stirring over medium heat until mixture is thick and clear. Add butter, lemon rind and lemon juice, stirring until butter melts. Serve hot, over hot pancakes.

ENJOY!

Spring in Forks

The Cullen Family is off for a hike in the Olympic Mountains, but at their home, the rhodys are in full bloom. With the sun out, it feels like spring!

Pocket Edward back on US Soil

In the past 24 hours, Pocket Edward had been in 5 different countries. He was in Northern Ireland, the Republic of Ireland, Wales, England and now the USA. It has been an exhausting day for the humans in his life, but Edward is none the worse for wear. He did help us bags around. It is nothing for him to lift a few suitcases!

Pocket Edward in Ireland

Yes, Pocket Edward was in Ireland. Dublin to be specific. He has moved on, however and is currently in another country. Green fields and lovely coastliine abound. Some of Susan's (the resident innkeeper) family lives here...

Pocket Edward Visits a Pub

May 14, 2010

It is legal to go to a pub in this country, even if you are under 21. Since Pocket Edward is only 17...we let him come with us. We enjoyed the food here, Edward just waited for us, of course. But we did get him to pose by one of the country's most beloved exports!

Voltera!

Tuesday, May 4, 2010

Since the innkeepers are mere mortals working for the Cullen family, the Volturi, wanted to meet us. This was a scary experience, but we survived. Edward was also not excited to be here!

Now Where is Edward?
