Shrove Tuesday

 

February 17, 2026 - Toronto ON

Growing up my mother would make crepes on Shrove Tuesday, served with lemon and sugar.

We never had "pancakes". I'm not even sure when I first had pancakes.

Crepes are the first food I grab in France!

What a shame that before digital, we wouldn't waste film on food photos as I know I ate crepes from food stands in France.

We used to eat at a creperie when we lived in Montreal, The Magic Pan.
