Perfect Pancakes

I was browsing one of my favorite magazines, Real Simple, when I came across an interesting idea for reusing a ketchup bottle. You can recycle your ketchup bottles by using them as pancake dispensers. Make lovely round flapjacks by squeezing out the exact amount of batter without the mess caused by attempting to transfer it from a mixing bowl. Small, medium and large pancakes are easily achievable with this method and you can get crafty too! Squirt out ears for a Mickey Mouse pancake or create a three tiered snowman for the kiddies all with a few simple drops from the former bottle of ketchup.

  7. Whoaa. It's a cool idea, though honestly, I went slighty "urgh" when thinking it's a ketchup bottle. EX-ketchup bottle, yes, but still.

    Loving your blog btw, I added it to my iRecommend list! Keep blogging, please. :D
