Tuesday

Down in the jungle, playing with my mate. I want to go to toilet. Pft. Too late!

Tomorrow, dear reader, is Ash Wednesday. In preparation for Lent, for Easter and forty days of fasting, we today embrace Shrove Tuesday.

To save me from temptation, all the good things from my refrigerator and cupboards will be used to cook up a fabulously large bunch of pancakes this evening. Toppings and fillings will include:

Nutella
Black cherry jam
Lemon juice
Sugar
Maple syrup
and
Quince paste

In which fillings and toppings will you indulge, dear reader?

Berries and whipped cream.

Yummy! I'm going for black cherry jam and a sprinkling of sugar for crunch. That and some Sainsbury's Greek style yog with honey. Mmmm.

I'll go for gravy and cheese.

We've got a large Polish population in this part of the country so we've got paczkis coming off the line. They're basically jelly or cream filled donuts. I've got to remember to make a paczki run and stock up before the day is over. Blueberry or Bavarian cream.... *drools*

Bananas, nutella and whipped cream or just plain old butter.

I am a person of extremes :P

Such is my almight power, I'm postponing Shrove Tuesday until Saturday where we shall feast on panckaes topped with bacon mushrooms and cheese for brunch.

I might also try some berries, if you have, with whipped cream.

since I'm on vacation right now, I wanted to visit my working colleagues and bring some carnival donuts, but then it got later and later and I forgot :(

I hope your pancakes will be fabulous, minge ;))

love,
sylvie

I made 31 pancakes (for four of us...still a lot though) and we had nutella, bananas, ham and mozzerella, vanilla sugar and lemon, maple syrup and honey and lemon fillings. We all thought we'd burst after. :-)
Hope you both enjoyed yours :-)
