Good morning all. Pancakes for breakfast? No 1/2a grapefruit.
Off to work soon. Will drop in later if I have a break.

Very traditional lemon and sugar for me please, but demerara sugar so that it's nice and crunchy. I've just had a Nigella "Shrove Tuesday email" saying that her children like theirs with Nutella.....

I don't mind cooking, but perhaps we could have more than one cooking pancakes over the years I have learnt that my lot could eat them faster than I could cook em !
Now what about drinks... what on earth do we serve with pancakes a sparkling wine perhaps ?hmm

My lovely houseguest has just made two containers full of pancakes topped with sugar & cinnamon and fresh lemon juice for my husband to take to work tomorrow. Right now she's in the kitchen baking 'rusks' which are apparently very popular in her native South Africa. What a great friend.

Do you do gluten free? If so, lemon and caster sugar is fine by me. I can bring pans - I have a draw full from the days when the 'boys' used to see if they could eat more than the other one. I think younger son's record was 18!! Needless to say, I didn't fancy pancakes after that! So, if you are cooking Annika, I'm there! grin

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 grin
Bear in mind I am also packing (moving soon I hope) so any extra pans would also be welcome grin
