These are my go-to when it comes to pancakes. I found the recipe in an old McCall's set I was given when first married back in 1980. The cookbooks came in a plastic case that allowed me to thumb through to find the category I wanted. There were no internet searches at that time, so most of my recipes came from books and magazines. The others came from friends and family.

This is the best recipe (and the easiest) that I found for homemade pancakes. I changed it in order to use my blender. It's so much easier to just pour the batter from there onto the griddle.

Enjoy!

One evening an old Cherokee told his grandson about a battle that goes on inside people every day.

He said; "My son, the battle is between two wolves that live inside of all of us. One is 'Evil'. It is hatred, envy, jealous, greed, arrogance, guilt, shame, resentment, lies, false pride, superiority, and ego.

The other wolf is 'Good'. It is joy, love, peace, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, forgiveness, generosity, truth, compassion and faith."

The grandson thought about this for a minute and then asked his grandfather; "Which wolf wins?"

The old Cherokee grandfather replied; "The one you feed and pay attention to the most."


"This we know: the earth does not belong to man, man belongs to the earth. All things are connected like blood that unites us all. Man did not weave the web of life, he is merely a strand in it. Whatever he does to the web, he does to himself."

- Chief Seattle

I would venture to say that the reverse is also true. Whatever he does to himself, he does to the web.

JAMAICAN CHOCOLATE CAKE

Yield: 12 servings

1 1/2 cup self-rising flour
1 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon allspice
3/4 cup Cannabutter, softened
3/4 cup superfine sugar

Dark Chocolate Cannabis Cake
Ok, here's the recipe for one of my favorite concoctions, haven't seen this done b4, so i thought i'd modify an old recipe i found in my fam's cupboards, here ya go:

INGREDIENTS:

2 cups all-purpose flour
2 cups white sugar
3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 Eggs
1 cup brewed espresso
1 cup whole milk
1/2 cup cannabis vegetable oil
2 teaspoons vinegar

DIRECTIONS:

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch pan.
2. In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar, cocoa, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Make a well (hole) in the center and pour in the eggs, espresso, milk, oil and vinegar. Mix until smooth, batter will be thin. Pour into prepared pan.
3. Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into center of the cake comes out clean. Allow to cool.

Makes about 12-16 servings.

Dark Chocolate Frosting:

2 cups powdered sugar (confectioner's sugar)
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa
1/4 cup milk
4 Tablespoons butter
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 teaspoon finely ground espresso

Blend sugar, cocoa, and espresso together. Melt margarine/butter and then add margarine, milk, and vanilla to cocoa/sugar mix. Beat for a few minutes. Pour and spread evenly onto cooled cake. Allow to set for a few minutes. Frosting will be a little runny and will thinly coat cake.

Making the Cannabis Vegetable Oil.

Lightly heat (lowest setting on stove) the vegetable oil in a deep, small pot. Be careful not to spill. Add 1/4 oz. of schwagg or 1/8 oz. of higher grade cannabis grounds to the preheated oil, stems are fine, no seeds. Mix and continue to heat until the oil turns a slightly greenish or darkish brown color. Once well mixed, allow to cool gradually (do not use refrigerator or freezer to cool, sudden temperature changes may affect THC content.)

Once cooled, you can either strain it or leave as is. I prefer to leave as is to ensure high THC content in the oil.

Add oil to cake mix.

This tastes VERY good. I like to divide it up into sixteen pieces. One piece will get you pretty darn high for a good five to six hours or more.

EDIT: The Vegetable Oil could be replaced with something like cannabutter or something with more fat in it if desired, but i've had good results with the cannabis vegetable oil, just be careful not to burn yourself or the oil (see IndianaToker's tips on making the oil or butter, as my above post may be slightly inefficient by comparison, still, don't have many complaints regarding this method yet).

Ganja Tea and "Mother's Milk"

Ganja tea can be made from water, regular milk, or soy or nut milk. Boiling buds in water is not enough, as it won't dissolve the THC. This recipe comes courtesy of the WoMan's Alliance for Medical Marijuana, in Santa Cruz California.

Pleasin' Pot Pesto

This goes great with all kinds of pasta, or it can be spread on bread or put on a pizza--a pot-addled imagination can create culinary treasures!

Grower's Guacamole

The dip that calls for the best, stickiest, most resinous, bud possible. The bud needs to be powdered beforehand (a coffee/herb grinder works great for this).
