Shrove Tuesday

Everybody knows that shrove Tuesday means a lot of eating! It's not called "Fat Tuesday" in french for nothing! As everyone is busy having fun for carnival, here's the musician Moby showing us how to make a deliciously ethical version of the pancakes we all love eating! The word carnival itself comes from the latin phrase "carne vale", meaning appropriately "farewell to meat".

The traditional way of celebrating shrove Tuesday in the UK is to have a pancake race. This usually involves your mum or perhaps grandmother running down the street whilst flipping a pancake in a saucepan... with hilarious results guaranteed!!!
