[There's still a good cup of batter left, even! She crosses over to grab two more plates from the cupboard, and then loads each of them up with a fat stack of pancakes. Each of them gets a big hunk of butter on top, and a healthy drizzle of the real maple syrup she'd gotten from that Eskel fellow.]

Really? Oh my gosh, that makes me so happy. Eat more, okay?
