tuesday tip

several of my mommy friends have been saying that i should share the things i do to make life easier, so i am going to try and share a little tidbit every tuesday (i am hoping the alliteration helps me remember, but that is not the tip).  if there is something you want to know how i do with four kids, let me know and i will try to offer something useful.

today's tip - use chocolate chips in pancakes instead of syrup on pancakes.  the clean-up is much easier and there is a lot less stick on the table.  i have also found that dark chocolate is less messy than milk chocolate. plus, it makes it easier for me to just eat them cookie style while still getting stuff done in the morning.

love.

We do this, too! So nice not to deal with syrup.

And when we do use syrup (ie toaster waffles) I put the syrup on in the shape of a letter or number. This limits the quantity and makes it a fun little 'educational' game
