Might be too light for real syrup but good old Mrs. Butterworth's make these shine. Make sure you use "real" butter. Do not substitute. http://www.grouprecipes.com/106289/birdys-awesome-pancakes.html This is probably a bit of an unusual recipe. Then again…maybe not that strange, I have been using shaving soap for about 30 years. The main reason It is better soap then the stuff in a can. We also don't have to mess with all those empty shaving cream cans. Plus it is very inexpensive. If you buy it in the store it will run you a whopping .99 for something like Williams shaving mug soap. Williams has only been around for about 160 years so they must be doing something right. Williams Shaving mug soap will last about 3-4 months. Now you can buy the stuff that Wal-Mart sells for about $3 and lasts about 3 weeks, but it is crap so why bother. Or if you feel adventuresome make your own! The problem is that it takes 6 weeks to cure. However it is a very nice end product and you only have to make it once a year or so. Now most people shave and those that don't you probably wish that they did. Now just think of it you have a nice warm, slippery, soft brush sliding over your skin mmmmm…err… give me a minute here…Ok now where was I? This is a recipe from on line, but is so similar to the one I have used that I don't think it makes much difference, that and I don't have to write it out by hand! If you have never used a shaving soap before then you are in for a treat. You will probably never go back to a can. Or modify your own recipe, just take your basic soap recipe and add about 2 tsp. of Bentonite or other clay for every pound of soap in the batch. I prefer Bentonite clay, though you can use Kaolin, Rhassoul or Fuller's Earth The recipe below makes about 3 lbs. of soap, so I'm using 2 tbs. of clay. Up your percentage of castor oil to about 8%. That's it. Add a fragrance or essential oil appropriate for the person shaving - but be sure that it is one suitable for sensitive skin - remember, you're shaving through this soap. All of this can be found at a good health food store or in the super market. http://www.grouprecipes.com/100407/shaveing-soap.html Late harvest apples here are turned into a zesty chutney for sides ,sandwiches and a snack on savoury biscuits ! http://www.grouprecipes.com/96252/harvest-time-apple-chutney.html Not a McFish http://www.grouprecipes.com/93616/fish-burger.html This time of year the ATAULFO mangoes make thier way into the markets. They are by far the best mango. Combined with pineapple and cilantro this makes a great slasa to eat with fish or chicken, or by the spoonful. http://www.grouprecipes.com/88581/mango-salsa-ataulfo.html Everyone at work insist that I bring this to pot luck lunches. http://www.grouprecipes.com/87377/hollywood-cheesecake.html My girls have been asking me to make these for Christmas ever since they were old enough to talk (it's the only time of year I will go to that much effort for a "treat").
