My mother made pikelets when we were kids and then use to make them withe kinder kids when she was teaching. I made scones today and must admit I prefer them to pikelets because they all cook at once so the chef doesnt miss out!

When you get right down to it American is a different language. They have something here they call an English muffin, it is good but it is not a muffin. I made the mistake of buying a package of crumpets once. Those were just nasty.<br /><br />Do you have baps in Australia and Hovis? I am a carb-a-holic and for the most part bread in the USA is awful. Lori makes wonderful bread, always a treat when I am in SD. I think we will have pikelets for tea tomorrow.Henriettahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00980100650453154588noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20394496.post-8596191966794888312011-09-11T14:56:37.776+09:302011-09-11T14:56:37.776+09:30I love your blocks.

I'm still shovelling pikelets into my hungry boys - they insist on adding food colouring, usually blue. They taste the same, but it's just not right.Lynleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02956362488310278470noreply@blogger.com
