Pancake Days...

I know, I know...It's been a while! I've become an official Yelper which means I've neglected my few friends who actually bother to read this site...but there is good news, I've got some updates!


Firstly I will cover the most recent activity that I undertook...creating pancakes for a room full of people on a day that the American's don't even bother with. I mean seriously?! They bang on about pancakes the rest of the year like they're a bloody religion and have whole restaurants dedicated to the creation of and consumption them...yet say pancake day to an American and they stare at you blankly! What is wrong with this adopted country of mine?


So anyway in the US, Tuesday (afore mentioned pancake day)was Mardis Gras day...so in honour of our home land and current location we decided to mix the two and create Mardi Gras pancakes! This essentially meant adding plenty of cinnamon, coloured sprinkles left over from halloween and some pink sugar to the pancake mix. It might look awful but it tasted...well just sweet!


Luckily I also made a lot of plain batter (an awful lot) so there was a proper pancake spread. 


If I was to take up residence in the US...Pancake day would  definitely be introduced to the country.
