I saw this as a kid so my guess it came out no later than 1995. A group of 2-3 kids are staying with an uncle-type person, a real slovenly guy. One of the kids spills milk on the counter and gets upset about it. The guy says not to worry. He proceeds to then crack a couple of eggs on the counter, mixes it up, drops some bread on it, and then makes french toast. I remember it sticking in my head because I loved french toast as a kid but had no idea it was made with milk and eggs.
Uncle Buck?
I thought the same but so far as I’ve found, the pancake scene doesn’t match. No kid spilling milk or mixing on counter.
In Kramer v. Kramer, Dustin Hoffman mixes the eggs and milk in a coffee mug, then has to fold the bread to dunk it in the mug…
I don’t think I ever watched it, but there was an Uncle Buck TV show. Maybe it came from there?
I feel like that might be too clever for the tv show.
Fairly certain it wasn’t the Uncle Buck TV show. I don’t think I ever watched that.
