Pancake Day!

[byslantedlight.livejournal.com]

Okay, I know this was yesterday, but I saw macklingirl's post today noticing that there wasn't enough Pros on lj, and also suddenly realised that there hadn't been a single post to ci5hq in January, despite my best intentions, so now I Have Plans. *g* And the first is - to read Pros fic where the lads have pancakes! Prompted as a starting place, of course, by hagsrus posting a new Prosfic today. (Valentine with Pancakes, below).

So - can anyone think of any other Pros stories that involve our lads and pancakes? Any time of year would do, and any kind of pancakes, for any meal. Just a mention of them, really... *g*

Breakfast in Bed by Tango65
Discovered on Pancake Tuesday by MLM
In the Bleak Midwinter by Rhiannon
Pancake Tuesday by The Hag (now part of Raymond's Joy if you fancy a longer read).
Seventh Sunday of the Year
Shriven by Slantedlight
State Secrets by LilyK
Valentine with Pancakes by The Hag

Oh, and I also found this art by snailbones, made for Discovered on Pancake Day over at discoveredinalj years ago, and hope she won't mind me re-sharing...

Can't think of any pancake stories (yet) but I love that art work.

Isn't that art absolutely gorgeous, every single golden drop of it? And not that I'm greedy or anything, having just read snailbones (Spottydog's) first Prosfic, but now I just need her to write a wee pancake fic... a ficlet... a ficletette would do... *g*

I cheated and googled and found this:

In the Bleak Midwinter by Rhiannon

Oh yes, I'd forgotten the Breton pancake queue - well remembered, and thank you!

You're welcome and I'll keep looking...

Just a note: It's actually In the *Deep* Midwinter. I've been trying to reach HG to get it corrected but her email etc is a bit eccentric.

Just checking, are you sure it wasn't a deliberate mistake, kind of thing? Irony? One of the characters does say it's 'bleak outside'. I don't know anything about the story, either its contents or the history/background of its creation so I'll happily take your word for it, but I think I'll change the title when it gets changed at the Archive otherwise it might lead to confusion!

Thanks for the information.

At the moment I don't know any pancake-story. But it might be a good idea to put pancake at a hint in our prosficindex, what do you think?

So sorry (yet again) to be so late replying! And yes!

So sorry (yet again) to be so late replying! And yes! <i<>Pancake</i> would definitely be a good entry at <user site="livejournal.com" comm="prosficindex"> - great minds think alike... now I just have to do it!

I don't remember any pancake story at all, but there is another eating pic *g*:

I'm soooo late to replies - but yes! I love that scene! *g* And actually toad in the hole (doesn't Bodie have toad in the hole?) is basically sausages surrounded by pancake batter and baked, so... thank you! *g*
