Nice :rolleyes:
I'm going to make sooo many panckaes later, and for my fllings or toppings or whatever i'm having lemon jucie orange juice and then nutella. Yum.
Who else has been to the pancake house at center parks, thats all sorts of good
or custard day, where you eat loads of custard. yum. not that I need an excuse to do that anyway.
I have instant mix
It is rather depressing to see people use instant mix (full of salt, sugar and those delectable trans fats) rather than taking the 20 seconds or so to make their own. It shows just how bad food education is really.
I bought some eggs specially from the Tesco in my office.
Just do somethin extra.
I'm volunteering for Oxfam.
That way I can still eat cheese AND be a humanitarian.
It's win win.
the second lot was the best.
for lent im giving up.................................pancakes.
Me too
I'm not giving up anything foodwise for Lent - am trying to add things into my diet so it would be a bit counterproductive. Might use it as a proverbial kick up the backside to do something worthwhile though, as Anomie said :thumb:
For lent I am giving up...I don't know. I would say cigarettes, but I have about 16 in my bag which can't go to waste, really ;o. Year before last I gave up Baker's Oven Roast Chicken Bakes, and I was the only person out of our whole group who didn't have the thing they gave up for the whole of lent. The others were supposed to all buy me one as a prize, but I think I only ever got two (out of about 8 people) :grump:.
Collop Monday - Shrove Monday
Named after the traditional dish of the day: collops of bacon served with eggs. In addition to providing little meat, the collops were also the source of the fat for the following day's pancakes.
i love pancakes, but for some reason i only ever have them on pancake day!
i feel i will have to stop reading this forum coos certain posters annoy me a ridiculous amount. ha.
Should be interesting...
Ive just eaten 6, and im FULL!!
Never made them before so I am excited.
For lent I'm giving up all bad food. I'm giving up snacks and I'm going to try to eat healthy to lose a few pounds! Its funny as I'm going on holiday 40 days from now! What a good excuse
Instant mix, for people too fucking stupid to mix flour eggs and milk.
As kermit said, it's full of shit, if you want to eat shit, make the mix from scratch and add shit.
I am giving up fizzy pop and squash for lent. I have too much squash and not enough water, methinks. We'll see how we get on!
I don't pass judgement of people who use instant mix, but I do find it a little odd. Don't know if they're all like this, but I saw one the other day that was "Just add eggs and milk!!"... and I thought "but surely that means it's just flour?!"
I would say that it maybe seems a little decadent to use an instant mix for something so easily whipped up from scratch; but for people with kids that clamour for more, more, more or for people with limited kitchen space or utensils etc then I can see why it would be an attractive option.
Choosing to use an instant pancake mix certainly doesn't make a person "fucking stupid". Wow.
Do you ever, y'know, feel really fat and bloated for being so fucking full of yourself?
Instant mix takes up more space. 4oz flour, one egg, and a half pint of milk can make 8 pancakes. People should be able to keep their kids under control after 2 or 3 pancakes, because when I was growing up, they were a treat.
If that makes me "lazy and a little bit retarded" so be it tbh.
I'm going to carry on having my opinion.
Have your opinion all you want, I'm not the facist here. Just try not to talk so much bollocks, you're making me clinically depressed.
They were fucking yummy
