happy pancake day!
24 February 2009, 01:39
happy pancake day dudes! shrove tuesday aka pancake day is the last day before the period of Lent. according to wiki “pancakes are associated with the day preceding Lent because they were a way to use up rich foodstuffs such as eggs, milk, and sugar, before the fasting season of the 40 days of Lent.” i had some blueberries stashed in the freezer, a quick defrost and tadah!
i dont usually make pancakes. after working at a certain pancake restaurant im all pancaked out! but this year i thought id whip up a batch so i could play with my new lens (ef 50mm f/1.8). i found a frypan that was meant to be used to fry one egg heh so i made mini pancakes which um i guess is kinda like a pikelet…
MAH chocolate chip stack! erm i went a little crazy on my recipe and doubled it because i thought i didnt have enough mix hurhur my bad
icecream makes me happy. as does extra chocolate chips. oh how i wish i made the effort to make chocolate sauce!
and then i got bored and tried being smart and poured some pancake mix into my gingerbread man cookie cutter… cept he got stuck! but a little push and…
hee hee harlo gingy pancake!
lol sorry last shot of my pretties!
the awesome Billy from A Table For Two will be donating all profits generated from advertisements from his website to UnitingCare so hop on over and check out his pancake day event!
Back to home
the gingerbread man is cute!
your pancakes look so professional. wait, hang on a minute, you were a professional! soon you’ll be an expert on the 50mm/f1.8 too :)
— Helen Feb 24, 01:59 AM #Wow, the first shot is uber-pro – it looks like it’s straight out of a magazine…me has lens envy…
— Chris Feb 24, 08:34 AM #The cookie cutter pancake was absolute genius! Did it taste as good as any of the others?
Also, it’s been ages since I’ve last seen Gabriel Gaté.
— Simon Feb 24, 08:37 AM #hello gingy pancake! (i wiki’d shrove tuesday too. could never figure out what shroving had to do with pancakes before now).
— shez Feb 24, 09:39 AM #OOhh Loving the superpancakeystack mmmmm ^^! I am sure you have some left over yes…? (00) share the love? hee hee
The pancake gingy man is awesome and he looks extra thick mmmmmm
— FFichiban Feb 24, 11:42 AM #Not religious, but wish I was eating pancakes!
— Fiona Feb 24, 12:04 PM #Ohh 50mm/f1.8.. very nice :D
— Fiona (RandomBlowup) Feb 24, 01:55 PM #I’ve got a Sigma 30mm/f1.4. Love it!
I think I need your recipe too, yours look super puff! Mine is too big and is drooping on the edges. But yeah, dont think i will make pancake again so soon…
— billy@ATFT Feb 24, 07:49 PM #hehe.. the gingerbread man pancake looks sooo cute….
— foodie-central Feb 24, 08:28 PM #your pancakes look so good!! i got mum one of those mini pans too for her to fry eggs – you’ve given me the idea to use it for pancakes :P
— panda Feb 24, 09:10 PM #Oh yum, blueberry pancakes are my favorite! All your pancakes looks so perfect. Makes me want to eat them that must more
— Maria Feb 24, 10:38 PM #helen: hehe im glad i learnt something from a previous job!
— chocolatesuze Feb 25, 03:22 PM #chris: aw shucks thanks dude!
simon: ah the gingy got stuck so im not sure it was such a smart idea but he tasted good! a fat squishy pancake!
shez: me too! i had no idea! and is it sad that i actually put the food holidays on my calendar…
ffichiban: heh yeah gingy was squishy! i liked him more for looks than taste tho
fiona: me either but hey any excuse for pancakes right!
fiona: lol i still dont know what im doing with my camera! i need a photography lesson!
billy: mine was puffy cos i made them in a small pan with high edges so really they were double the batter thick pancakes but small in circumference heh you still want the recipe?
foodie-central: thanks! i love all things gingy!
panda: heh the egg pan is so cute!
maria: me too! ive tried raspberry pancakes too but blueberry always wins out!
OMG next year I am coming to your house for pancake day – delicious!
— Katie Feb 25, 06:52 PM #katie: hehehe sure thing dude! you bring the syrup and ill make the pancakes =P
— chocolatesuze Feb 27, 01:43 PM #Hi, I’m Nancy. I came across your site while scoping around checking out other food blogs since I can’t do much with my camera in hospital. Great site! Your photo reminds me of the pancake I made last weekend; banana blueberry pancake, that was. I also enjoy baking and hope to see you at the market.
