Mom's and Mama's Birthday: Making Pancakes with Chocolate Bars and a Free Birthday Cake from the Barangay Officials

It's a happy day! Today's Mommy F and Mama's birthday. I greeted both of them in the morning and we all welcome the day with a happy heart even thought there is no ganap or even a feast at home. We are just being practical and there's a lot of foods that is not okay for Mommy F anyways so she thought "nevermind." But even though she said that, I still want to make this day a lil different because it is her and Mama's day.

When there's a lot of she has to avoid, thinking about the perfect recipe for the day is real hard! One thing I want to make is chicken burger but i'm afraid she'll get itchy coz of the chicken. Mama can eat anything but the problem is, Mommy F can't. Aigoooo. But it is just for today so even though flour and egg is basically just bad for Mommy F, I just made pancake with Goya Chocolate Bar. Eating it once should be okay right? ƪ⁠(⁠‾⁠.⁠‾⁠“⁠)⁠┐

So this is a merienda, I went to the nearest grocery store to buy the Ingredients needed.

I only need a few thing for the pancake, like flour -hapf kilo, powdered milk, baking powder, 2 eggs, and 2 goya chocolate bar, with almond.

For the other ingredients, we need 2 tablespoon of oil, pinch of salt, 3 tablespoon of sugar -I don't want it too sweet, i will put chocolate in it anyways, and water. I don't really know the right measurement of everything because I just put whatever amount needed until I get the consistent I want for the pancake batter.

So in a bowl, I just put together all the dry ingredients and mix them well using a hand whisk. I think this is where I failed during the last time I made pancake. The baking powder wasn't mix all well that's why I didn't get the fluffy texture that I want. But this is not a fail -yayy, yayy ＼⁠(⁠^⁠o⁠^⁠)⁠／

Next is putting the egg, oil and for the water, I added it gradually just until I got the right consistency for it

And for the chocolate, I actually cut them into smaller pieces, I am planning to make a wide pancake and I need ro scattered the chocolate on top of it

And its cooking time! I just heat the pan, put a drop of oil in it and drop the pancake batter in it. I also put the chocolate on top before adding more batter to cover the chocolates

I cooked each sides for more than a minute, I'm using low heat here. After a minute we'll just flip it over to cook the other side.

And done! ฅ⁠^⁠•⁠ﻌ⁠•⁠^⁠ฅ

I am already on the second pancake, the oldies are already eating the first one when I heard Mommy D talking to someone on her phone. Minutes later, she get inside the door and she told me the sad new... Auntie Ella just pass away. Like, today, on Mommy F and Mama's birthday. No one can control death for sure but, the next one would be for sure a sad celebration.

Aigoooo, life.... parang buhay ಥ⁠_⁠ಥ

But anyways, we received a cake today from Barangay Official, I mean, Mommy F received it. This been on since last year I think where the baragay official gave free cake for seniors. Mom is a senior so she received one.

They surely made Mom happy with this cake (⁠ ⁠◜⁠‿⁠◝⁠ ⁠)⁠♡. They personally brought it home ෆ⁠╹⁠ ⁠.̮⁠ ⁠╹⁠ෆ
