For fun...

Tyler likes to run errands.  Connor would much rather stay at home.  On one such night when Carl was running errands while I made dinner, Connor asked if we could surprise everyone and make it fancy.  Thus, we went from a simple pancakes-for-dinner-because-I'm-lazy sort of night to Ricotta Pancakes (delish by the way!), garnished with apple slices & whipped cream, grape juice in stemware, my favorite white square plates, and a bright red table cloth with candles.  I even thickened the homemade syrup. ;)
