When I was small, I stood on a chair in the kitchen, with an apron tied around my chest, helping my mom (and dad) with cooking and cleaning. Mom washed, I rinsed. I learned the proper way to set a table. I learned how to make pancake batter from scratch (I've since forgotten the exact ingredients and measurements), and how to gauge doneness and flip the cakes in the skillet.
And I learned to make syrup.
And I learned to make syrup.

How to Make Jane's Breakfast Syrup
- Place sugar and water in a saucepan over medium low heat. Stir.
- Add remaining ingredients. Stir.
- Cook on low, stirring semi-constantly, until sugar is completely dissolved.
- Cool for several minutes before placing in glass storage container. (Can prepare canning jars and seal for extended storage.) Refrigerate after opening.
- For other flavors, omit extracts and molasses.
- For berry syrup, mash berries through a wire sieve to remove seeds and most of the skins. Add pulp and juice to syrup in step 2.
- Before storage, skim foam from the top until syrup is completely clear. (Foam can be used, it's just not pretty left in the syrup.)
