Today is Shrove Tuesday. I refuse to call in Pancake Day, or whatever they name it these days. I have been celebrating it since I came to England and spent a lot of time with the French community at uni, because the French students all celebrated it. It's funny: before that, I never really celebrate Shrove Tuesday, even when I was a good little Catholic boy. So today I will stuff myself with pancakes, drowned in maple syrup, because I'm from Québec and this is how we eat pancakes (that and sometimes molasse, but finding molasse here is kind of tricky). This is not how Wolfie eats his pancakes too, he is very fond of maple syrup, as I mentioned before. So anyway, do you celebrate Shrove Tuesday? If so, how?

Once in awhile I'll have pancakes, if I remember and am in the mood to eat them.
