How committed to tradition are you for this occasion?
Next Tuesday is Shrove Tuesday, or pancake day. We have decided to celebrate with waffles, jam & cream instead of the traditional pancakes with sugar & lemon. Is that bad?

It would be interesting to know what the tradition was BEFORE pancakes with sugar and lemon.

People sometimes forget that the traditions they hold dear now were not around all that long.
New traditions are fun to start and can be just as enduring.

According to this second link, ALL pancakes are a part of Shrove tuesday.
Sounds like an interesting tradition.
Enjoy.
