my mother always threw away the first pancake and the
first palachinta (sp)pancake (really crepe, now i know
better). they were always too greasy. and i don't think
she knew too much about napoleon.
i still throw away the first palachinta pancake on the
rare occasions i make them. hmmm.... maybe this weekend.

I don't have a cat but the first pancake usually goes to the smallest
Child who will be having it cut up for him anyway. What I find is that the
first one very often sticks outrageously to the pan. Maybe I don't have the
temperature quite right. But the subsequent ones are usually fine, even if
the first stuck one has left some residue on the pan.
Non-stick pans are just wrong :-P
