DID YOU SEE WHAT HAPPENED YESTERDAY?
Well, today I/we/and and at least, thank heaven, 60% of the USA was in shock so deep that I for one, almost could not post my thoughts…this post could have been very dark…
But then I thought, wisely, let’s corral these thoughts (for a change) and think instead about the future, say, February, and pancakes on Shrove Tuesday and then I asked myself, what IS Shrove Tuesday and then I answered myself and said PANCAKES are Shrove Tuesday and then I thought, Loulou, you are one weird kitty because if you don’t know what the pancakes (okay, actually crêpes) are FOR, you are NOT educating yourself about how some holidays have great meaning along with pancakes, and so I said to myself, Hey, nu-nu, LOOK IT UP!!! And so I did.
On Shrove Tuesday, the French eat crêpes with vim and vigor. I mean, not actually v and v but instead caramel or sugar or whatever one wishes to put on one’s crêpes. For some it’s Grand Marnier and cassonade, brown sugar, and for others Nutella or melted chocolate and other good-tasting things.
But mama is the wierdo. Mama will make the crêpes gladly, but I’ll bet you ten to one that she’ll end up folding her pancake over garlic pimiento cheese or ricotta mixed with cilantro, maybe a little hot sauce.
Some people are not just weird, they are certifiable cuisine corruptors, haha.
I’ll have the crême frâiche, s’il vous plaît! Délicieux…slurp, slurp.
Hey, some kitties choose better than anthros, that’s for sure.
But wait a minute. Ricotta? Cheese? I’ll keep you posted at Shrove time.
Meanwhile, you want dark?
Oh, mama says, she can give you dark, oh, yeah…
We are so ashamed of our people. There is ignorance deeply embedded on all sides of this division of our land. I almost said great but… *tears*
We do love Crepes and now Dad has an excuse to crank them out. Purrs
Shameful it is. Also criminal, seditious and too many words to write here. My heart goes out to those who are DUPED by a cult leader who takes their contributions to his cult and uses the money for his own gain. Bit the rats are leaving the sinking ship….heh, heh.
Loulou you are SOOOOOO “spot on” – we were totally in disbelief for a while then considered who had been encouraging this ridiculous event and – well – sadly it made sense. We are looking forward to CHANGES – BIG CHANGES – and I believe we will see them. Not just here but between us and the world. Positivity will be back – and I hope crepes will be on our menu to “cement the deal” !!! Mom has never made a crepe but she makes pancakes all the time. I think she could handle a crepe don’t you?
Love, Teddy
In a way, crepes are easier. Mama will post her easy recipe and how to make them, also the num num caramel sauce….and yes, the whole plan yesterday was masterminded by you know who, no question.
Pancakes with feta and syrup are delicious too, Loulou. So dreadful what is happening in the US at the moment. It’s so much nicer to think about delicious things. This crazy world we live in (sigh).
WOW, feta and maple syrup…drool. Will try that one as I can have a bit of feta now and then.
Well, Loulou – just be glad we’re HERE!! Mamma is worried for Biden and Harris and what the Trump crazies might do. We have never lived through anything like this – and Mamma is happier than ever that she moved to France. Especially since she wouldn’t have adopted ME – or met Papa!!!!
OR US!!! We are so glad your maman met my mama “on the street where I live”…Fate!!!
Oh LouLou – I almost posted tpo you yesterday afternoon when I knew it was already past your bedtimes, but I was so horrified…Thinking of pancakes is a help at the moment, so we can get things sorted out over time.
Lies are dangerous ammunition and the mob violence yesterday was in response to lies the members of this cult have been told for four years by an unbalanced leader. Not to mention the COVID that was spread yesterday for hours among non-mask wearers. Unconscionable.
That yummy food is much better than the idiot alerts from yesterday Loulou!
Well, that was quite a day. What a riot, eh?
