'YOU MUST take your decorations down by Twelfth Night (which you will recognize by the fact that your true love will have sent you twelve whatevers doing something-or-other). Otherwise, you must leave your decorations up till Shrove Tuesday, when you take them down, burn them, and cook your pancakes over their flames.'

Got my pancake mix out ahead of time, homies! Just love 'em! :pancake flip:


So, how was your Christmas? One to remember? Or, one to forget?

    I'm sorry you had a miserable year. Let us hope 2018 gets better for you dear.

    Shrove Tuesday/pancake day is Tuesday 13 February. I can't wait, so let's get into practise! :pancake flip: :pancake flip: :pancake flip:
