ReplyDeletelooks like fun, love, k
Looks like fun, I adore these kinds of get togethers. It is such fun for people to do a 'turn', all the more pleasurable because we know them.
ReplyDeleteWe don't have Mardi Gras, we have Shrove Tuesday, better known as pancake day.
Our pancakes are like the French crepes rather than American pancakes which we think of as 'drop scones'. Now people tend to squeeze lemon and put sugar on pancakes, but in our house it was always orange and sugar.
There was also other stuff, jam and my favourite - golden syrup! We used to have pancakes quite often, but always on pancake day!
I was very amused to discover that all of my French friends buy their pancakes in packets from the supermarket - then they warm them up in the fancy crepe pans!
Wouldn't be Lutheran without Ole and Lars!
