In a medium bowl STIR together flour, baking powder, cinnamon, ginger, cloves, baking soda and salt. In a large mixing bowl beat the egg and milk till combined. then beat in the molasses and oil. Add in the flour mixture and STIR IT-JUST UNTIL it is blended but still slightly lumpy!!! (DO NOT USE A MIXER.) Pour @ 1/4 C of batter for each pancake onto a HOT lightly greased griddle or electric skillet. Cook over medium heat till they have browned, flip when pancakes are bubbly. Serve with lemon sauce—

LEMON SAUCE

In a small saucepan-stir together:

1/2 C sugar

4 tsp cornstarch

a dash of nutmeg (I don’t put much in at all-I just like the peppery look of the spice in the lemon sauce, if you put too much it changes the color of the sauce from the beautiful yellow to a brown color-so restrain yourself and only use a dash)

Stir in:

1 C water

Cook and stir until thickened and bubbly. Continue cooking and stirring for 2 more minutes, once it has come to a boil. Remove from the heat.

Add in:

2Tbsp butter

1/2 tsp fresh lemon zest (if you don’t have a lemon zester-you can use a fine grater)

2 Tbsp fresh lemon juice with the pulp-no seeds please

Stir until the butter melts and is well blended. Serve warm over the pancakes. The sauce freezes well. I usually double the sauce. This looks so pretty served with fresh blueberries on top.

Cheri Peoples – Visit their blog ~ I share a lot about interior decorating and projects that are frugal but look like you spent a lot of money, tips on how to save time and money, recipes and lots of Give-A-Ways. I have been doing a family blog for about a year but just started its so very cheri about 2 months ago and have had about 3,000 visitors in that time and have 81 followers. I know it’s thousands of visitors a day but I think my numbers are good for just being 2 months old. The second blog just opened last week and it features products I make-that people can order, great finds that we discover while we are out and about, it also features some photography and art from my father-a retired Hallmark Cards guy. We are wanting to add OTHER products that meet our quality standard. If someone wants to send us a product for review we will feature it on the blog and if they want to offer a second piece for us to use as a give away we will offer it on its so very cheri with a link over to its so very cheri 2 so the readers can go over and look at their featured products and how to get in touch with that person on purchasing items. We hope to have larger companies feature great products as well.
