On Shrove/Fat Tuesday it’s traditional to make pancakes which uses up all of ones fatty stuffs such as butter, sugar, milk, etc before the season of Lent where one gives up such indulgent foods. These are my scratch made pancakes and store made maple sausage. I don’t know what I’m doing for Lent yet. I have a few hours to figure it out.

I didn’t know that! That’s why it’s also pancake day. I didn’t think there was a connection. Thanks for explaining this. 🙂

I’ve a lot of memories of my mom making pancakes for pancake day! I’m one of four children so waiting in line and arguing over who got one next was never fun for me, the littlest, until looking back on it now! Our pancakes are thinner than yours, looking more like a crepe, and we always had it with some lemon juice and sugar! I’m in America this year and used to seeing thicker pancakes but we’ll be making English ones – a day late, but still! Hope you enjoyed your food!

I was always too far north for the Mardi Gras of my Aunt’s world (she was in LA), but Shrove Tuesday was always important no matter what faith I was in..ok, college cafeteria
didn’t indulge in the practice.
