The Pancake Flip
Last Sunday morning, Grandpa Luis let me flip pancakes in his small yellow kitchen. The butter sizzled, and the whole room smelled sweet. I slid the spatula under the first pancake and gave it a big toss. It flew up, spun once and landed on top of the fridge! Grandpa stared at it. Then he grabbed a step stool, climbed up and peeled it off. "Well," he said, "that one is for the fridge." We laughed so hard that the next pancake burned. After that, I flipped more gently, and every pancake landed in the pan.
