Great Pancake Mystery

The mystery of the horrible pancakes, see entry below, has already been solved.

Lunch, which we call Dinner, was fine, and I cleaned my plate. It was roast pork, au gratin potatoes, Malibu vegetables, roll, green salad with Italian dressing. There was coconut cream pie for dessert.

A stranger, in white apron and a baseball cap, came out and asked us how dinner was.

"It was fine.  Who are you?"

"I am Dave, the new cook."

"What happened to Linda?"

"She's back there.  I am the assistant cook."

"Well, Dave, the dinner was fine, but there was a problem with the pancakes at breakfast."

"I know," said Dave. "Sorry about that.  I had trouble. It was my first time on a griddle new to me."

"You made the pancakes this morning?"

"Yes, I did." 

Apology accepted.
