Pancake Day

Definitely in my Top Five days of the year, simply because you have to eat pancakes. I can remember Shrove Tuesday as a child as clearly as turkey at Christmas or excessive amounts of chocolate eggs at Easter, and I love that foodie nostalgia. There are so few days of the year where food traditions are still alive, that we need to celebrate and nurture them or lose them all to history. Today is just far too much fun to let that happen.

My topping of choice is lemon juice and golden syrup. I know the purists say lemon juice and sugar only, but golden syrup is sugar. Just better.
