Flipping heck, Pancake Day is almost upon us. And whether delicate crepes are your kryptonite or thick fluffy pancakes are your crux, Shrove Tuesday - as it is official known - is arguably one of the most delicious days of the month - maybe even the year. And that is because it is fondly associated with making flippingly good rolled up, flipped around, and flattened pancakes that can be enjoyed at any time of day - be that the savoury sort (cheese and chive, anyone?) or sweet sweet Nutella monstrosities.
This year, Pancake Day comes a week after Valentines Day on February 21 and precedes Ash Wednesday - as it is known by Christians. It is a tradition observed in not just the UK but many countries around the world and represents a final day of indulgence before Lent begins the following day.
And while it seems like we've just got over Christmas and New Year feasts, I think we have room to squeeze in a few more tasty days such as this.
