Since we have a new stash of maple syrup, Fat sparrows were called for. My family loves these:
For the fat sparrows you will need 1 egg, a pinch of salt, 1 C. sour cream, 1 heaping tsp. of baking soda, 1 C. flour, 2 T. sugar and 2 tsp. of vanilla extract to a bowl.
Mix all of the ingredients together and let the batter sit for 15 minutes. Cook in butter until brown and crunchy on the outside. They will be very light and fluffy on the inside.
And if you ever wanted a big crystal chandelier my advice is: NO! Don't do it. They shine like jewelry when they are clean but keeping them clean is a bit of a problem. The Easter cleaning has begun!

Yes, chandeliers are lovely to look at and admire but let someone else have them. I love the way yours looks. Very pretty crystals! When I was little I always dreamed of having a chandelier in every room. Tacky, I know, but I was young. What did I know? I now have one in the dining room and I have to clean it every six months to keep it looking really nice. I would get rid of it in a minute but I love it too much.
That's one reason I've never had a chandelier, the other one is that my homes have always had close to the ceilings. They would be hanging so I would hit my head in them :-)
Have a great day!

As for chandeliers, beautiful to look at, and always seemed so magical to me. But I can't even imagine how hard they must be to clean.
This was the first rx that fit the bill. My goodness they were delicious. My husband loved them too.
I do it the easy way..put in all in a glass tray and pour Tarnex over it then into hot soapy water..and it's lovely. How would you clean those anyway..I mean a BIG one?? Certainly not crystal by crystal??
