    We should have then more often- yum yum. The french and yanks have them on a regular basis.
    They are quick and easy, why we only have them once a year?

    Have to admit I love pancakes too , and always ask myself on Shrove Tuesday why I don't make them more often for myself :o

    I'm not mad about pancakes (the thick kind), but I looooooove crêpes, be they sweet, savoury, with no filling or topping at all, I don't care.

    If you beat the albumen separately and fold it into the batter they usually come out lighter.

    You know when you've been feeling down and worried and you just decide to give yourself a day off from it all and not care.

    As part of my day off, I'm going to have a super bubbly bubble bath, do my hair and makeup real nice, get into my jammies, light a blazing fire, get cosy and then order a humongous chinese takeaway.

    My cat got into bed with me this morning. He was so cute. No matter which way I turned or curled up, he curled up right next to me. He was like a furry hot water bottle.

    I must say Liverpool's monumental collapse has been enjoyable to observe. :)

    Flock of sparrows going nuts each morning now outside the window. It's just cheep, cheep, cheep, they can't sing but they are so full of enthusiasm. Even in wet weather. Never give up!

    My car is all packed up with my school stuff ready to go back in tomorrow. I am so nervous but so excited to see my little ones.

    Now I will relax for the evening and eat far too much food! :D

    A rover landing on mars with a helicopter on board, transmitting HD video to earth via orbiting satellites ...
    This is not trivial, it's really awesome, in the real sense of that word, but the fact that I was treating this as trivial, until I had to stop and think and realise this, makes me happy. :)

    After watching one of the most inspiring documentaries I've ever seen called, into the storm: surfing to survive. I will admit I shed a tear a couple of times watching it.

    The thing, which is certainly not a trivial thing, that made me happy today was hearing the news of our elderly citizens getting vaccination appointments all around the country for Thursday and Friday of this week. These are the people in complete lockdown for the last year and finally getting an opportunity to start dreaming of a real life again. These are the people who also laid the groundwork for the transformation of Ireland into a first world country, so they should be cherished and protected.
