Mmmmmm comfort food

One of my favourite childhood memories is eating pikelets, hot and straight out of the pan and smeared with butter.... mmmm sticky gooey goodness!

I made them for my boys yesterday and had to make 3 batches! They both had a tummy bug late last week and by yesterday were at the recovery stage of being absoloutely ravenous, but still not tolerating anything too exotic. So good old pikelets came to the rescue.

You know you are at home mum when you realise you have a fail-safe recipe that your kids love memorised - for me it's pikelets and anzac bikkies!

It was a lovely time, free of the usual fights and screaming that are their primary communication at the moment, they woke up from naps and sat on the kitchen bench all sleepy eyed and warm from being under blankets, and as soon as the pikelets were cool enough down the hatch they went!

The peace was nice while it lasted, half an hour later the household returned to it's usual chaos!
