Kyk…hierdie pannekoek-bakkery van gister het my bloeddruk sommer baie hoog laat spring! Ek is seker nie DIE ekspert op pannekoek-bak nie, maar ek glo dat ek die bak van pannekoek bemeester het toe ek 12 was en nog NOOIT…OOIT….in my lewe, en dis die reine waarheid…ek jok NOOIT…(oops..) …sal een van my pannekoeke flop nie…vra vir Jannie du Toit…ek het langs hom pannekoek gebak by ‘n Kerkbazaar daar in Pretoria toe ek ‘n student was! …..dis die enigste SA-celeb…met wie ek so van naby te doen gehad het!!! …….maar gister s’n, kyk….dit was ‘n ander “storie”…selfs die derde een het geflop!! Liewe genade….ek kon dit nie glo nie…ek kon nie dat pannekoek-se-kind my onderkry nie! maar toe moes daar plan gemaak word, want hierdie raak toe net een te veel vir my…was so vies vir hulle, het besluit ek sal hulle ook nie eet nie!…nog bietjie meel bygesit en siedaar…hierdie is die laaste een van die baksel en ek het gevoel ek moes hom blog…net om van hierdie opgekropte gevoelens ontslae raak…ongelukkig nie gister tyd gehad om die foto’s af te laai nie! Dus…hier is hy…die ander is verslind… -ek het nou nog nie een geeet nie, was te vies! hehe..- … en dit was juis sulke nat-pannekoek-eet-weer…..eintlik is dit nou sommer elke dag sulke weer hier! En ek wonder wie lees my blog vanuit sy “airmail-metroweb”! Daardie ou moet oppas ek lees dalk al sy emails…hehehe….
Hier is die bestanddele wat ek gebruik, maar ek “voel” altyd die deeg met ‘n koppie wat ek gebruik, want dis gewoonlik te dik en dit moet bietjie verdun word. Die basiese resep is:
1 koppie meel, 1 teelepel bakpoeier, knippie sout, 1 eier, 1 koppie melk, 1 koppie water. Die deeg moet dik-loperig wees.
Chess game 18 and the Lewis-men

I named these two games…. “The Wild Queens”…… in both games..against the same player in the same tournament…4-play-all…. I felt that this player should have waited a little bit longer before moving around so wildly with her Queen…and yes, this player is also a female player with a rating slightly lower than mine. I see these two games really as more of my “silly” games as I was more chased by a hyper Queen and couldn’t really focus on any strategy…. She didn’t move her Queen so “wildly” in the first game as such. In fact, I had to gather my wits to avoid all her sneaky moves! …the end was really quite a traumatic end for her King, I think! hehe.. I really like the checkmate in this first game! I played black in the first game and white in the second game! In these two games you get to see why it is important to plan your moves and to have a strategy….not that I always have that….you will notice that I don’t have it at all in these two games. My only plan here was to get rid of those hyper-pieces and to play chess! hehe..

In this second game she annoyed me very much with her Queen and Bishop! I got so annoyed…hehehe…with her Queen that I even offered my Queen by capturing hers, just to get rid of her Queen! What a joke! She unfortunately lost her one Rook unnecessary…..and in this game you realise how mighty those tiny little Pawns can be!! I pushed her by using my Pawn and I even offered her my one Rook! which she “rejected” and I got my Pawn promoted to checkmate her and she lost her other Rook of course in the process. I don’t like playing with my Queen so “wildly” as I know it’s just a matter of time…and she’s gone….but sometimes you have to be the risky-type! You might wonder why I didn’t en passant her in this game…well, that was to block her! You don’t always have to en passant….it all depends on your “plan of action”…
