Pancakes in Italy

Pictured is our Italian famiglia-Heather's colleague Emanuele on the left, Mamma Rosanna and brother David at our apartment eating buttermilk pancakes with real maple syrup! Emanuele talked of enjoying them at various US conferences so we packed a box of mix and jug of syrup in our luggage back in January when we came over. This past sunday was the day to serve them, Larry flipping the pancakes like on TV while Heather made a tasty fruit salad to go with the pancakes. Italians don't eat much breakfast so this meal was odd for them to say the least but a good time was had by all.
