So, did you eat all your favorite goodies on Tuesday before Lent began? We had (what I think may be becoming a tradition for us) our loaded pancakes with yummy whip cream and fresh fruit! Angel chowed down on the raspberries and blueberries...definitely her mother's daughter! We tried this new PANCAKE recipe and Jason says it was easy to make (was a treat for him to cook dinner) and they sure tasted good!!! What do you do for your Shrove Tuesday / Fat Tuesday / Mardi Gras / Pancake Day???
I made the traditional king cake for dessert....the recipe was fairly simple but my arms got tired with all the kneading!! It looked pretty once it was iced and sprinkled with purple, green and gold colors to represent justice, faith and power. I just hid a quarter as I didn't have any plastic babies....and Angel was very excited to find the treasure and put it in her bank! It was such a huge cake that I sent half of it with Jason to work the next day! Yummy!
