not for T-day

I figure the next couple of posts will revolve around T'giving, I know I've got some Roulade and Stuffing miracles to come.  I figured that I'd get things going again with a non-Thanksgiving post.

I made oatmeal craisin pancakes tonight.  And unfortunately, they were just alright.  They were missing something, I'm not sure what.  I think it might have had to do with the mixing of the "wet" ingredients.  I was supposed to melt butter, and add buttermilk (I used the milk + vinegar substitution), vanilla, and an egg.  Maybe I didn't let the "buttermilk" stand long enough, or maybe the milk was too cold and the butter was too warm, but when I mixed it all together it was...odd.  Not uniform.  I was in a rush, it was about 830pm, and had been about 12 hours since I'd last eaten and I was getting desperate.  I dumped it into the dry ingredients, and whisked it up.  Seemed to mix up fine.  But something was just a little off when I ate them.  Disappointing.
