02-05-08 Hey Hey, Fat Tuesday!

2008.02.05
Oh, how I do love pancakes!

Cheesy potato casserole!! Way too fatty and unhealthy, but really really good.

FRUIT! My way of balancing it all out.


I just liked how my friend had this little table set up. It's very cozy.

First shot at a flame.

We went over to some friends' house for Fat Tuesday. It was delicious! YUM. Pancakes are definitely up there on my favorite food list. I just snapped some shots during the evening, and these are the ones that came out ok.

Shrove Tuesday is the day before Lent, which starts on Ash Wednesday. The word "shrove" comes from "to shrive" which is defined as "to give absolution from sin," so Christians use this day to consider their spiritual state and what sins they need to repent for. It is a day of preparation for the Lenten season.

The holiday is also known as "Fat Tuesday," or “Mardi Gras” because housewives would use up all the fats and oils in the house because they weren't allowed during Lent.

Is the title a play on "Hey, hey, hey, it's Fat Albert!"? Very cute.
