you say potato
happy mardi gras! for those of you stateside, the uk celebrates “pancake day” for shrove tuesday. which entails eating pancakes for dinner – an enterprise i could thoroughly get behind, except that “pancake” here refers to a crêpe. with lemon and powdered sugar. or golden syrup.
they do sell bisquick here though, thank goodness, so we had fluffy american shortstacks with maple syrup and butter.
the bottle of maple syrup we purchased says, “delicately smooth taste of butterscotch and creme caramel.” um, no. butterscotch tastes like butterscotch. caramel tastes like caramel. and maple tastes like maple.

I was under the weather and so didn’t get to partake Tuesday. I feel like such a pancake heretic!
