“She often made pancakes for the family on Saturday mornings. But this Saturday it wasn't much fun, without Sam there. Sam liked pancakes shaped like rabbits or snowmen. Her parents didn't. "You want a snowman, Mom?" she asked, raising the bowl to pour the batter into the pan. "No, thanks. Just round will be fine." So Anastasia made a boring round pancake and served it to her mother. "Dad?" she asked. "How about a rabbit? I can really make good ears when the pan's nice and hot." But he made a fa...ce. "Frankly, your pancake rabbits make me cringe. They make me think I'm slicing the Easter bunny. Just do me a round one like the one you did for your mother." "I could put raisins in it," Anastasia suggested. But he made an even more hideous face. "Spare me the raisins. A round, plain, unadorned pancake, please." Adults were so boring about food. Anastasia wished for the millionth time that Sam were home. Sam even let her put food coloring in his milk. She served her father an enormous round pancake, made herself a halfhearted snowman, and sat down to eat.MoreLessRead More Read Less
