Beauty in the Ordinary

This is not about being brilliant, or extraordinary, it's not about wanting to be famous, or making headlines, or trying to impress...this about sharing a 'gift' each day with the world...to lift the spirit of people when they read this blog, to show them the beauty in the ordinary.
"And above all, watch with glittering eyes the whole world around you because the greatest secrets are always hidden in the most unlikely places. Those who don't believe in magic will never find it." Raold Dahl

Shrove Tuesday - Pancake Day

http://zsazsabellagio.blogspot.ca/

'whether you call them pancakes or crepes they are delicious.  Batter made of a little flour, egg and milk, popped into a hot skillet thinly coated in butter and deftly tossed - just the once.  Then onto a plate to be dusted with lemon juice and finely-ground sugar, or stuffed with berries and then coated with a wisp of maple syrup...whatever your fancy.  The hot, sweet, fat-filled mixture satisfying all human taste-desires, melting slowly in your mouth, and all the while bringing the promise of Spring just around the corner."JP
