    I believe it’s pancake Tuesday today, though I didn’t remember until after it was too late for breakfast. Is it acceptable to have pancakes for tea?

      It is acceptable to eat pancakes at any time as long as they are covered in brown sugar with lots of cinnamon. This is what separates us from the savages.

      Any other form of pancake eating is just plain wrong, which means you shouldn’t be allowed to eat them.

      I will not discuss this further unless you agree with me.

        What about lemon juice and icing sugar?

          This is my favourite topping for pancakes + butter, but I wonder if its just folks of a certain generation, because nowadays people are going with blueberries, maple syrups, nutella, whipped cream etc instead.

            Pancakes are just a pretty basic batter. I think that allows a pretty wide range of toppings. Sweet, savory, fruit, cream, butter, sugar, lemon juice, maple syrup, etc. Peking duck is often served with pancakes, but is not the only meat and pancake meal.

        With sugar or maple syrup, or is it a special dinner topping?

            I’m trying to decide if pancakes with sugar/maple syrup is dinner or desert, or if we make pancake lasagne or something 😆

                Oh man that looks good. Too bad we don’t have any ice cream.

                We did end up having pancakes for dinner, went with icing sugar and lemon juice (plus that one kid who had to put lemon juice, lime juice, icing sugar, maple syrup, and banana).
