Pancake day

I think Rowan likes the idea of pancakes more than the taste.  He gets excited about making them, and choosing the fillings but he usually ends up dissecting them to access the filling, abandoning the actual pancake.  For Rowan, pancakes are a warm, floppy plate for holding the tasty main event.

This year, we made savoury cheese pancakes followed by lemon and sugar pancakes (Rowan has a surprising fondness for the tart taste of lemon).

I should probably point out the cut on Rowan's lip in the photos.  He fell face-first off his bike at nursery a couple of days earlier and is now sporting an impressive cut and swelling.

The serious business of dissecting pancakes

Because one plate of pancakes is 

never enough 

Coated in refined sugar - I can already hear the

self-righteous netmum zealots!
