By popular demand* here is my mom's pancake/waffle mix recipe. I'm not sure where it originally came from but it is damn tasty. Enjoy.

Mix:
 3 1/2 C white flour               Combine all ingredients, mixing
 3 1/2 C whole wheat flour         together to resemble fine meal.
 1/2 C   wheat germ
 1/2 C   soy flour                 Tip: To make life easy add the
 1/2 C   cornmeal                  oil last and mix in with a whisk
 1 T+1 t salt                      or some sort of pastry blender.
 3 T     baking powder
 1 T+1 t baking soda
 1/2 C   oil

Pancakes:                          Waffles:
 1 Cup   mix                        Same as pancakes plus 2-3 Tbsp oil
 1       egg                       
 1 Cup   buttermilk

*And by popular demand I mean Beth asked me, so I might as well post it here since I have to type it up anyway.

So I just finished importing all my mail archives starting from the beginning of college into Gmail and randomly found this recipe that I had sent to someone a few years back:

No-Bake Chocolate Cookies

2 c. sugar                              1/2 tsp. vanilla
1/2 c. cocoa                            1/2 c. peanut butter
1/2 c. butter or margarine              3 c. quick oats
pinch of salt
1/2 c. milk

In large saucepan, combine sugar, cocoa, butter, salt, and milk. Bring
to a boil and boil for 1 minute, stirring constantly.

Remove from heat and add vanilla, peanut butter, and oats. Mix quickly
and drop by tsp. onto wax paper to cool.
