Catch it if you can!
Tomorrow is Shrove Tuesday or Shrovetide. You may know it as "Fat Tuesday" or "Mardi Gras." Shrovetide falls on the day before Ash Wednesday, the beginning of the forty day fast of Lent leading up to Easter. Traditionally people fasted from products like eggs and butter at this time so they used up all the eggs and butter in a frenzy of pancake making.
Having pancakes for dinner is a fun family activity to bring you out of the "everyday" and have a simple reason to come together and celebrate. Pancakes are so easily made that even very young children can participate in this activity and this is one simple meal that mom need not stress out about either.
Tomorrow night my family will be making a variety of pancakes to eat, topped with ingredients like; organic maple syrup, yogurt and coconut sugar, lemon juice and powdered stevia, blueberries, etc. I encourage you to have a pancake feast of your own and join us here at Wise Glorious Purpose as we enter the Lenten season!
Once,
Twice,
Three times I give thee warning,
to make pancakes 'gain tomorrow mornin'!
