Re: Pancake Day
My son was just explaining to me today that what I call pancakes are actually Scotch Pancakes or Drop Scones (and are quite like Canadian Pancakes) and 'real' pancakes are what I call crepes! (I'm Scottish, he's not and we now live in England - and he's 11 and now knows everything!)
Anyway we had real / English pancakes today: first lot with tuna, sweetcorn and cheese and second lot with lemon and sugar - main course and pudding sorted. |

You should try them and maybe some other Candian traditions - might help your last couple of years fly by without too much annoyance. :thumbup: |
Re: Pancake Day
Well, thank-you for the advice. I'm sure that making and eating drop scones will make the time fly by.

Pfft - I doubt it, but the added syrup (any sort _ Golden or Maple) may help sweeten her up a bity.
Actually tbh tis prob too late. What does everyone call bread rolls then - thats a definite geographical speciality. In Leicester we called them cobs :thumbup: |
