Yes pancakes for tea in this bit of the UK too

None here. Not sure what Shrove Tuesday is here in the USA. And I can't have pancakes :(
I live in a gluten free household, we have no wheat, barley, rye, etc.. products do to food reactions to the gluten in them. Maybe some day we'll be brave enough to try a gluten free pancake mix, :) Have a few for me, I miss them on occassion.

I don't know that holiday but I had waffles. My son's 21st birthday request.

Shrove Tuesday.. Fat Tuesday.. Pancake Tuesday.. The day before Ash Wednesday, the beginning of Lent. Don in TX

Yes!! We had pancakes at school today. Stella in Pretoria South Africa

I'd never heard of Shrove Tuesday before we came to live in England. Children had their pancake races at school. After we returned we kept up the custom for a couple of years. So I haven't had my pancakes today, but I have thought about it.

It is a tradition in France also. And on that day, the children can wear costum after school

We have it in US too. Lion's club brings in the pancake man from out of state. Just got back. Sure was good.

Thanks for sharing...I will adopt that tradition. I have latkas for hanukah and mexicion food for for Cinco de mayo..why not pancakes the day before lent. I love celebrating

Hi to all those wondering what SHROVE TUESDAY is all about -

Shrove Tuesday is the day before ASH WEDNESDAY in the Christian church and the idea is you get rid of all the "goodies" in the pantry for LENT.

SEWFRENZIE I am in the same boat as you. I can eat BUCKWHEAT pancakes though as they don't contain wheat. It's more like eating a multigrain style of pancake. Quite nice and Buckwheat is made from RHUBARB! How amazing is that?

I'm off to Ash Wednesday mass this evening and then our new Deacon (Michelle) is coming over to my place (I am only 6 houses from my church) to see all my designs for Stoles etc. I can't wait to see her and discuss what she'd like.

I have a free day today - babysitting Ophelie again tomorrow. So I hope t get some sewing done today.

Love and blessings Chris

Have a look at what SHROVE TUESDAY means on the link.

Yes lOVE it, I make the Dutch ones called 3 in the pan. Much thicker batter and with cut up apple and sultanas in it. Delicious!!

Well yesterday for us, and we had pancakes for tea, with our deacon and a couple of people from church around too. My daughters thought pancakes for tea was great!
I served them with a selection of toppings to choose from on the table - bacon, maple syrup, yoghurt, fruit and of course traditional lemon and sugar! Bacon and maple syrup is rather nice :)
I started the fruit and yogurt ideas to reduce the amount of sugar consumed by my daughters, otherwise they get too silly!
We gathered as a parish family for Shrove Tuesday where we used to live and it was great. Haven't managed to get our new parish to catch on to the idea yet :(

We celebrate Shrove Teusday here in Canada. Ash Wednesday also being the start of Lent.

my kitchen still smells of lemons
think the little one went a little mad
with the sQueezy pot lol..
Big hugs from London

I forgot about pancakes yesterday, it is already ash Wednesday here down under.

In Chicago, we had Paczki's. It is a filled donut. I miss them in Florida!!

We Have Shrove Tuesday here in Australia. There is always something going on in the Mall here in Adelaide on Pancake Day.

I had never heard of Shrove Tuesday... but you have to love traditions that include pancakes! Thanks for sharing.

It is such a shame living away from UK. I had no idea it was Shrove Tuesday. I could have easily made savoury pancakes yesterday. We will have them tonight!!!!! Thanks Sue for the reminder.

Thanks for sharing...
