Harry Forgot Pancake Day

If you know me, you know I’m crazy about pancakes. I obsess over them. I dream about them. Yet, somehow I totally forgot that February 24 was National Pancake Day!

I didn’t realize I’d missed my favorite holiday until one of my friends back in Memphis called to ask how many pancakes I ate. I had to tell him that I accidentally skipped Pancake Day this year.

You see, National Pancake Day was the same day as Fat Tuesday. If you’ve been keeping up with my blog, you know I was super-busy with all of the Carnival celebrations that day.

It seems ridiculous to me that you’d have two wonderful holidays happen on the same day. I wonder who I have to ask to get National Pancake Day moved to some date when it wouldn’t interfere with Mardi Gras celebrations?

Oh, well… it’s not like I need a special holiday to eat pancakes. Mmmm. Delicious warm stacks of pancakes with melted butter. And real maple syrup.

As a matter of fact, I think I’m going to go get some right now. If anyone asks, I’m changing every day to Pancake Day!
