Martin Luther King Junior Day Pancakes

Tomorrow is a big deal day for my kids. Tomorrow is Martin Luther King Junior Day. I don't know about you, but I really get into the holidays. In the morning, I'm going to make this special pancakes I make. You just add a little bit of cocoa powder, just enough change the color. The end up looking a bit burnt. The first time I made them, which was a couple of years ago now, they didn't want to eat them because they actually did think they were burnt. I told them that they were Martin Luther King Junior Day pancakes. It was a really good lesson for them. I told them not to just the quality of the pancake by its color but to judge them by how good they taste. They're actually pretty good.

Next, I'm going off to work and my husband, Richard, is going to do something with the kids, probably play laser tag with them at this place they go to out in Springfield.

  1. Are you saying the brown pancakes don't look as good as the white ones?? And another thing, this seems like the ultimate exercise in objectifying someone.

  2. How can I objectify someone when we are already objects. Remember your grammar, which I believe they teach in school in America. Also, since Monday is President's Day, which is the official birthday of American Presidents, I think I will make the pancakes again and call them President Barack Obama pancakes.
