To-day is both Thinking Day and Ash Wednesday and yesterday was Pancake Tuesday. Add in Valentines Day, Groundhog Day and Imbolc or St Bridgette’s day – Feb 1 and February becomes this very busy month – not bad for 28 or 29 days.<\/p>\n
Well, we celebrated pancake Tuesday on Monday – they tasted the same – because it was Family Day in Canada and we were able to snag the kids around noon, for a family brunch, before they headed out.<\/p>\n
I always like to think that I have invited my grandmother to pancake “events” because our pancakes are generally blueberry and my grandmother always made blueberry pancakes especially on Pancake Tuesday.<\/p>\n
Anyway it was a civilized gathering until I happened to cut into one very large blueberry, which took its revenge by exploding all over me, the table, the wall behind me and a Monet print mounted on said wall – those water lillies will never be the same – fermented in blueberry juice!!<\/p>\n
Everyone thought it was hilarious – second only to the time in NY when the waitress spilled beer on my head – what it takes to get a laugh – alas!!<\/p>\n
Anyway, I hope that your celebrations were wonderful – now back to the knitting!!<\/p>\n
Have an eventful day!!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
