a snow day keeps me at home today, the day before lent begins, so i can indulge before fasting and abstaining begins tomorrow. pancake tuesday, today called in some locales, and i think about them, actually gather ingredients to make them. but in the end, it seems too big a splurge. i settle for blueberries in cereal. pancakes will have to wait until after easter.

pancake tuesday
a snow day keeps me at home today, the day before lent begins, so i can indulge before fasting and abstaining begins tomorrow. pancake tuesday, today called in some locales, and i think about them, actually gather ingredients to make them. but in the end, it seems too big a splurge. i settle for blueberries in cereal. pancakes will have to wait until after easter.

I like the name of the blog. I knew the meaning of it but I forgot now.
Thank you
Take care
Bummer! I definetely would have gone for the pancakes! But I admire your self control :)
Just reading your post makes me feel cozy!
Pancake Tuesday? That sounds heavenly.
Pancakes are a HUGE hit our home and I make them in large batches to freeze whatever is not inhaled by my growing children. Love your blog... and pictures!!
I like pancakes too! I have given up bread products before for Lent. This season I will work on my vocabulary and eliminate some things I don't find pleasing when they come out of my mouth.
I always have to wait for my husband to make the pancakes. It always seems like too much for me, but he whips them up in no time. Now I'm craving blueberry pancakes... :)
nice thats how i would do it but i love cookin and baking
Funny thing is that Tuesday my husband made pancakes for our breakfast. Very yummy. He is the best breakfast maker around here.
do you know why pancakes are traditional? i heard this on the radio yesterday, that it's British...but no explanation....
curious, is all.
no snow here. totally bummed.

Just found this site on blogs of note. Love pancakes!
I've just started a blog of my own. Hope you'll all take a look.

Aha! Now I more fully understand the conversation we had at lunch today!
i love pancakes mostly when family or friends are here to share. and especially the "real" kind, with flour, baking powder, sugar, milk, egg. apparently pancakes are thought of as feast-worthy foods in some places and are eaten on tuesday one last time before the weeks of fasting and abstaining that are associated with lent. we will perhaps have them again though, and soon - they are one of the little girl's favorite recipes to help make!
I love pancakes...

Blueberries in cereal has remained my faithful breakfast for three years now. Pancakes are wonderful, too. I'm currently searching for a great vegan pancake recipe, involving pumpkin..
