Shrove Tuesday


For those of you who missed it, Tuesday was officially Pancake Day, where all diets go out the window for 24 hours to indulge in some battery goodness.

Our house decided weeks ago that we were going to have a big pancake night, as we were all working during the day and couldn't do breakfast. We bought a load of groceries and made the batter from scratch, then had every topping imaginable on a pancake. Maple syrup, cream, raspberries, blueberries, strawberries, ice cream, Nutella, lemon & sugar...we literally gorged ourselves silly for dinner. Nutella crepes are quite famous in Europe and it wasn't until I tried one that I understood why. Soooo good! I rolled into bed swearing I would never eat another pancake again as I was so full.

Yes, what a great battle it was to stop the dish from running away with the spoon (boom tish, thank you very much).
