Mia Flips a Pancake
Mia tries to flip a pancake, and it lands in a very surprising place.
It was Pancake Day. Mia mixed flour, eggs and milk in a big bowl. Max the bear stirred. The batter was smooth and creamy. ‘Time to cook!’ said Mia.
Mia poured batter into the pan. Sizzle! It turned golden. ‘Now for the flip,’ she said proudly. She gave the pan a big toss. WHOOSH! The pancake flew up, up, up.
And it landed on the window! Splat! Max stared. Mia stared. Then they both burst out laughing. ‘Try again!’ said Max. This time, Mia flipped it just right.
Soon there was a tall stack of pancakes. They added sweet syrup, juicy strawberries and a big blob of cream. ‘Perfect,’ sighed Mia. And that was the last thing either of them said for a long, delicious while.
