Yes, I reckon your pancake was rather gooey in the middle. <g>

I thought girls had a natural inborn talent for these things. I specialized in chocolate cakes made from scratch. Delicious. Light, tall, fluffy. When I was first married, my wife refused to cook (she was a chemist and her mother a home ec teacher -- a shoemaker's kid going barefoot). I cooked. My specialty was C-rations with exotic spices. That didn't last long.

<<She said to pour the grease into a jar. >>

On my first trip to Canada we fried up a mess of fish in an electric cooker full of oil. Clean up time came and we were faced with a cooker full of 350 degree oil. Now the smart move would have been to unplug it and wait until morning but no, we had to pour the oil back into the bottle. I came up with the idea of cutting a corner off of a plastic bread wrapper to use as a funnel. That was a mess. Plastic melts, and quickly too at 350.

Now I can't take credit for being the lone bozo on that one as the other three guys thought it was a good idea. Alcohol was involved.
