BIG GIRL RESOLUTIONS
Hello, everyone!
This is Harlow, and I’ve just learned about New Year’s resolutions. They’re promises you make to yourself on Jan. 1 about things you’re gonna do before the end of the year. I’ve been thinking a lot about my resolutions, and I’ve come up with some really good ones! No. 1: Learn to dive underwater like Finn.
Simple Pancakes From Scratch Inspired by The New York Times
Last year, Mommy started taking my brother and me to swimming lessons. We’ve learned how to blow bubbles and what to do if we accidentally fall into the pool. My favorite part of swimming is learning how to float. I’ve always wanted to fly like a bird, and floating feels a lot like flying to me. I wasn’t super excited about swimming at first because I didn’t want to go underwater. Then Mommy and Daddy got me these pretty pink and purple earplugs. They keep the water out of my ears. Now I can’t wait to get in the water! Finn has been learning to dive under the water to get rings at the bottom of the pool. This year, I want to learn to dive just like my big brother! No. 2: Get Daddy to take the training wheels off my bike. I love riding my bike! Every day, I spend hours riding around. Even when it’s cold and raining, I want to be outside riding. I love going fast on my bike, but it’s hard to go really fast with the training wheels still on.
1. Heat a griddle or skillet to medium-low. 2. In a mixing bowl, combine dry ingredients (including sugar if you like a sweeter pancake). In a separate bowl, beat eggs into milk. Gently stir the liquid ingredients into the dry ones. Mix only until flour is moistened. Clumps are fine. 3. Add some butter or oil to the skillet. If the butter foams or oil shimmers, the temperature is correct. Pour in a pancake of any size, cooking until bubbles form, about 2–4 minutes. 4. Flip and cook other side for 2–4 minutes. Serve warm. • 2 cups all-purpose flour • 2 tsp baking powder • 1/4 tsp salt • 1 tbsp sugar, optional • 2 eggs • 1 3/4 cups milk • Unsalted butter or canola oil, to grease skillet Everyone should be able to make pancakes without a boxed mix. This recipe is no-frills fantastic and can probably be made without so much as a trip to the grocery store. Ingredients Directions
I really don’t need the training wheels anymore, but whenever I ask Daddy to take them off, he always says, “Oh, let’s leave them on for a couple more days.” I think Daddy’s worried about me going too fast. He doesn’t have to worry, though, because I always wear my Minnie Mouse helmet when I ride my bike! I’m really excited about my New Year’s resolutions. They’re all big girl stuff! By the end of the year, I’m going to be a big girl, too.
