Happy Mardi Gras! To all out there: "Laissez les bontemps rouler!"
Delta Dawn Travels is taking on Scotland in October! Did you know in Scotland that Shrove Tuesday( their term for today) is actually called Pancake Day? The Scots make especially thick pancakes and then, while holding pancakes in a pan, have races in the streets during parades, a tradition dating back to 1445. Below is a picture of some Scotch pancakes, a picture of a very old painting commemorating pancake day, and a photo of one of the many pancake races on Shrove Tuesday in Olney, Scotland.
(Recipes for Scotch pancakes are out there)
