England. Is. Awesome. While the celebration before Lent is no Mardi Gras. Fat Tuesday has new meaning. In England it's a sort of religious tradition to "clear out the cupboards of everything sweet that will be given up for Lent." So basically people used to make pancakes, put all the good stuff in them, roll them up and eat them. Well, this week has been a little crazy, so my flat decided to wait and celebrate at the end of the week. So tonight, we celebrated Pancake Day..
 |
| Some of the toppings included: Lemon and Sugar, strawberries and bananas, nutella, honey, and whipped cream |
 |
| Cintemplating whether or not to roll it and eat it, or to be lame and use a fork |
 |
| The pancakes were a lot thinner despite a really thick batter, but I'd say mine turned out pretty well. |
 |
| Lucy was quite the "pancake flipper" and Hannah was very intrigued by her abilities |
 |
| Apparently you're not supposed to "load it up" |
