Today is Fat Tuesday. It is the day that occurs before Ash Wednesday. According to the Christian tradition, you should give up rich food for Lent. I am not sure how to define the term “rich food” but I’m fairly certain the pancake is a perfect example. The goal of Fat Tuesday is to use all of the fat, sugar, and butter in the house to help with avoiding temptation for the next 40 days. Just to be safe, eat some pancakes today. While you are at it, make some pancakes for somebody else too.
