Todd, MomVee is always good for a new word. I’ve had Clabber Girl baking soda as part of my kitchen for months but had never really thought of it as part of my vocabulary. Now I want to clabber everything in sight. I couldn’t be more flattered that you like the photo – thank you!

Brooke, one of these days you may just see that crazy gorgeous rainbow cake of yours gracing this site. With three girls in the family, it’s all we can do to wait until tomorrow to start baking it!

I happen to think we may be sisters, separated since birth. I can’t think of a nicer way to spend a Saturday morning and…yes! Fluffy pancakes. And, yes! Flipping through cookbooks. If only everyday was Saturday.

THANKS for your comment on my blog, which led me to yours. Will check in oft. It’s a BEAUTIFUL site. So excited to see what you’re up to in your kitchen…

Clabbering! New word of the day for me! I love it. I was lucky to find an old breads of the world cookbook that my grandma had. She gave their pancake mix an “xxxx.” Her top mark. It’s been my pancake staple since. We do use Martha’s biscuit recipes, though. Damn good. Just like your photo. Todd.

MomVee, there should be awards for best blog comments, and you should win them. All. I’m going to try clabbering soon!

As a big fan of biscuits and a slight agoraphobe, I have clabbered quite a bit in my time. It never gets as thick as buttermilk, so you have to take that into consideration–but it curdles up beautifully and does the chemical reaction trick.

A few years ago I bought a cast iron dutch oven, tried and failed to season it, and hid it in the basement. R. rescued it last week and succeeded in seasoning it. I think full-time childcare and cast iron care are mutually exclusive.

MomVee, have you used the clabbering method? I’ve read about it but have always been too chicken to try.

I wish I’d gotten a nonstick griddle instead of my behemoth cast iron one that I’m not adult enough to take care of properly. David Lebovitz wrote the other day that if he’d wanted to invest so much time in something, he should have gotten a dog or had a baby instead of getting cast iron. So I feel a little redeemed.
