It’s pancake day/Shrove Tuesday again and I can’t believe in about 1 ½ months’ time it will be Easter! I wasn’t aware of this day until a friend of mine invited me for a Pancake picnic few years back. I didn’t even know how to make pancakes then and thanks to my friend for introducing pancakes to me.
I make pancakes quite often now and that’s why you
don’t see many pancake recipes in my blog. Things that I make often usually
never finds its way to my blog as I postpone clicking pictures every time. But
I knew that Pancake Day was coming soon and it seemed like a good time to post
it. I have never been so organised in my life before, I actually drafted a post
ready for today and was waiting for a good day to shoot pancakes to add the
pictures but unfortunately that didn’t happen and I forgot all about it until
the gals mentioned about the Pancake Day. I didn’t want to wait another year
for posting this, so believe it or not, I did the shoot this morning. I even
did a photo set up the last night and all I did today was I made the pancakes, shifted them
to a plate and clicked them even before my son was up!
