Pancake Day

The boy was quite excited to have blueberry buttermilk pancakes for dinner. Nice break for me too, didn't have to force any veg down his neck!

I remember the puzzled look on my Canadian husbands face the first time I made us pancakes. I cooked up a lovely batch of good English pancakes all ready to be sprinkled with sugar and squeezed with lemon only to be asked "Why are they so big and flat did you forget the baking powder?"
Canadian pancakes are small and fluffy and dripping with maple syrup. I must admit I have grown to love the Canadian version and it's all I make!
