Mirabelle’s flapjacks are legendary. It all started in her all-girls high school, when she got the top score on the Betty Crocker’s Homemaker of Tomorrow test. The prize was $10,000! She used that money to go to cooking school. Having gotten a taste of winning—and liking it—she entered every cooking contest she heard of. She came away with first prize in the Flappy Jack’s Pancake Mix cook off. No one knows her secret ingredient, but everyone agrees that hers are the best flapjacks they’ve ever eaten.
This Blythe doll is Fani Flamingo, posing for the theme “You Don’t Know Jack” in the Blythe a Day group. And yes, those are actual little pancakes that I made just for this picture! This story is semi-autobiographical, because I actually did win the Homemaker of Tomorrow award in high school, but there was no cash prize, unfortunately; just a certificate. And then I did go to cooking school, but I did not win any cooking contests.
