…can’t fluther… have eaten too many pancakes… stomach about to explode…
I will be duct-taping my sister in law’s boobs flat! Ta-da!
XD
Count me in! I’m having pancakes for dinner, thank you very much. I’d prefer pancakes to a shallow donut anyday.
It is and this dullard forgot to get pancake mix :(
YES! I ate six earlier, smothered in syrup & I feel quite sickā¦.. :-/
What about pancakes? Doesn’t anyone remember what pancakes are in Jellyland??
@janbb I do but can’t locate the Q right now :(
@SpatzieLover Ah..this is a little before my time. I’ve been here since March 2009!
Ooh, love it when the food stuff gets going. Yup, it’s pancake day here in chilly Blighty, my Hubby Mike makes lovely ones. Always prefers wholemeal flour – they come out nutty flavoured and substantial (today he used chapati flour, which worked a treat) – and local eggs. We had a savoury one, filled with a dahl he made last night, then several totally gorgeous ones with lemon juice and rapadura sugar.
When I was a kid, my Mum made pancakes for us; the joy was in waiting for her to get the first one out of the way, and being allowed to squeeze the lemons and sprinkle the sugar… Ooer, I’m getting hungry again now…
I love pancake day. Our pancakes are much thinner and bigger than American ones. More like crepes. Traditionally served with sugar and lemon juice. Yummy.
Yeah, it was on the news… wish I wasn’t nursing a broken ankle… then I could go in there , and MAKE SOME PANCAKES!!!!
@queenie – I will tell Hubby to come make some for you!
We had breakfast for dinner! Pancakes for the family. I think a dog managed to get part of one, too!
And I didn’t even have to go into the frizzer Or try to locate it!
