As it is shrove Tuesday tomorrow, you are all welcome round to my house for some pancakes, but what shall we have for the toppings ?
I like the good old lemon and sugar but I'm up for any ideas, oh and some extra eggs would be a help 
Bear in mind I am also packing (moving soon I hope) so any extra pans would also be welcome
Depends on how big you make them! How long is a piece of string
Yes, but how many pancakes do you think it made?
PS I lost a stone and a half with Slimmingworld about 18 months ago, have "only" put back about half a stone.
well I made the batter as previously described (half pint of milk, 4oz flour, 2 large eggs). Then, after we had had our supper (in my defence, a rather frugal one of homemade veg soup, with one of those part baked baguettes, fresh from the oven) Mr Phoenix stationed himself at the hob, and I stationed myself at the table.
He cooked, I ate. At times the synchronicity was lost, in that I was sitting there with my plate empty, cutlery at the ready, but there was a slight lag in service delivery. (He does his best, dear chap)
He reckons (and he has just estimated that the addition of 4 oz of flour & 2 large eggs to half a pint of milk would equal approx 14 fl. oz of batter, which he then checked against the capacity of the ladle used, well, he is an engineer, so is entitled and happy to indulge in such pastimes) would have resulted in between 8 and 10 pancakes.
Of which I ate a total of....................
All of them 
I am a very naughty, greedy Phoenix.
