My mom is 95 and living far away from me in Virginia, and my children are off on their own. My husband is away on business. But it is Mardi Gras and I shall make the pancakes again tonight. With sweet dark amber maple syrup. And I will light some candles to mark the continuing of a family tradition. Perhaps a little bittersweet but still memorable.

We will be joining you in spirit, I found a low carb pancake recipe! :D So the tradition continues, even if it's a little spread out :)

raethan, sweetie, thanks for the spirit, and the low carb website.
Oh, it´s been way to long since I made pancakes! Think I´ll do some this weekend :-)I still have some maple syrup and I think I´ll have raspberry jam too :-)
Our pancakes over here are almost the same as these You call crepes. I think it´s less flour in our pancakes than in crepes though.
Good for you! I think it is so important to carry on our family traditions. They remind us of who we are and where we came from.
Please have one for me, sister! ;)
Blessed Be,
Kim
I agree with Morganna - family traditions are important! I'm not a big crepe fan - but I can totally get behind some pancakes. Hope your dinner was wonderful!
oh, I love crepes!! Such a great family tradition!
Those crepes look delicious. I wish I could join you !!!
I had crepes stuffed with chicken at IHOP.
