We had lemon, sugar banana & raisins. Also made a few cheese ones. I would like to go on a peace march too.

For the first time I bought some ready made pancakes from M and S. Popped them in the microwave added sugar and lemon - delicious without ending up with a hot smokey kitchen !!

Request from DGD.

On a positive note, did you know that the Met Office call today, March 1st, the first day of Spring? Brrrr!

I'm giving up cheese.

Lemon and sugar. I'm not giving up anything for Lent. Not heard anything about peace marches here.

Lemon and sugar it’s just perfect. I don’t give anything up for lent either.

We had vigils held in the county a few days ago.

Didnt have any. Only me and couldn’t be bothered.

The local churches are serving pancakes today.

I decided to make some for the first time in years, but DH disappeared before they were ready, so his is waiting to be eaten, with sugar and lemon and is now cold. I wish I hadn't bothered, as I have had two and feel so full now!

Classic lemon and sugar here. Don't do giving up for anyone or anything, especially Lent.

I made Scotch pancakes this year. OH had honey on his and I had lemon, sugar and seedless raspberry jam.

Just lemon on mine.

I'm in a living arrangement where a daily lunch is provided as part of the rent. I'm giving up breakfast and tea.

Really dont like pancakes, growing up it was Shrove Tuesday then Ash Wednesday so we had to go to Mass and parade around with a dirty thumb mark on our heads.
I seem to remember Shrove Tuesday was also a day of fast and abstinence.
Certainly no meat was eaten.
Tonight’s dinner is a lamb tagine.
I will burn in Hell ?

No pancakes here, I’m giving up chocolate for Lent, doesn’t count really as I don’t like it much, but showing willing.

I haven’t thought about what I’ll give up for Lent. Last year I made a daily note of what I was grateful for. Another year I started a charity box and put something in each day and after 40 days took it to a local charity shop.

There are 5 of us here. DS and I had sugar and lemon DH had golden syrup, DGD had Nutella and DGS had Nutella and syrup.
I am going to try to give up chocolate

We had ours with lemon and golden syrup. What an I giving up for lent? Pancakes!

The savoury ones - a Bolognese sauce and salad. The sweet ones - classic lemon and sugar, or add some blueberries, Nutella, and finally maple syrup.

Just lemon and sugar for me, but there were seven of us, and they all had chocolate and strawberries, maple syrup and chocolate chips.
Not sure it’s worth the bother, but the .children love tossing them

We had traditional scotch pancakes, otherwise know as drop scones. I had butter on mine.

It’s always lemon and sugar for us. Not a great fan myself but DH likes them.

Don’t know about any peace marches but it is Women’s World Day of Prayer this Friday the 4th. I am not a church goer normally but am planning to go to our village service and join with others praying for all those affected by the terrible events in Ukraine in recent days.

Forgot all about it, shall have some tomorrow with lemon and sugar. I am not religious so do not give up anything for lent.

I couldn’t be bothered with making pancakes, might do them for breakfast tomorrow?
I’m not even remotely religious, I had Lent and abstinence dinned into me at RC school, put me off religion for life I’m afraid ?

We decided not to bother with pancakes. Not giving up anything for Lent either. Oh dear.?
