Panalate Season

Winter will so be leaving us, flowers will start to bud, and the trees will show signs of sprouting new leaves, soon it will be time for those little lambs to be bouncing everywhere…. It’s not spring, nope it’s panalate!

Why have I called spring panalate? Well reader, though I love spring and seeing all the signs of flowers starting to bloom, lamb roast dinners etc, I look forward to pancake day and yep Easter or as I call it chocolate egg exchange 🙂 hmmmmm.

PANCAKE DAY (aka as Shrove Tuesday):
Usually takes place on 4th March or round abouts this date in UK. We love pancake day, you can have all sorts of lovely stuff in pancakes such as…. Chocolate, fruit, lemon and sugar, honey. The list is probably endless I imagine. So what is pancake day? Well rather than me explain, have a read of this little link which explains it pretty well – https://www.historic-uk.com/CultureUK/Pancake-Day/

Those of us who aren’t religious, enjoy pancake day because it’s a good excuse to eat pancakes and well it’s kind of a tradition in the uk 🙂

EASTER:
Most of you who are clued up on these things will know it’s Christian thing, even though it’s taken from a Pagan festival. People who aren’t religious will just know this time of year as chocolate egg exchanging time, a good excuse to eat lots and lots of yummy chocolate 🙂

LAMB ROAST DINNER:
The traditional thing to eat on Easter Sunday is a nice lamb roast dinner! Probably because it’s spring and well there’s plenty of yummy lamb to eat. I love lamb, with loads of mint sauce.

So welcome to panalate season, a season of having pancakes, eating chocolate eggs and lamb roast dinners.
