Simply..comfort....

7/2/2021

Well, comfort food to be precise.  Bitterly cold outside with minute flakes of snow in the air, I took a notion to make pancakes...two days in a row.

Crispy and wafer thin, drenched in lemon juice and caster sugar, with a few slices of banana. Yum.

Made in minutes with 50g plain flour, one egg, 150ml milk and a good glug of olive oil whizzed together.

Raise your hand if you have not put on weight during this pandemic.

Thought so!

Raising my hand! I actually have lost a great deal of weight over the year. I was determined to do so and started the month before the first lockdown, so was committed. Not easy watching everyone post scrumptious things on their blogs. Helps that I very rarely bake anything. :)

Well done Mary! That must have taken true commitment. I have stopped baking as I was just eating it all myself.

Is that lost or gained?!

My, those pancakes look delicious! No hands in the air here's think I am heavier than I have been in the last 10 years. No doubt down to valid reasons such as the oven is on anyway so I will just make apple, cinnamon toasts and pour double cream over them. Very, very comforting though.

Well, if ever we needed comfort, it is now!

I just made banoffee pie which is soooo sweet. But cutting it small to last two of us for 4 meals. Eating lots of veg soups too - but cooked in butter so not very healthy ;-)

Oh that pie sounds good! And as for the butter I do think we need extra fat when the weather is cold.

Put on 3-4 kilos during our lockdown from mid March to mid May. Have managed to get rid of them, but ideally still need to lose a few more. Pancakes are one of my favourite foods.
