Pancake Tuesday

Today is Pancake Tuesday... or Shrove Tuesday, or Fat Tuesday... depending on where you live and how you  celebrate.  I have never been to Mardi Gras, nor have I ever participated in a Pancake Race, but in recognition of this day we will have pancakes for dinner. 

Which will make this breakfast-for-dinner-loving-girl very happy indeed.  My go-to pancake recipe is a standard buttermilk one, and it  makes wonderfully thick and fluffy pancakes, but I'm tempted to try something different tonight.  

Like these German Apple Pancakes at Jamie Cooks it Up!  Amazing, no?

There is no shortage of alternative pancake inspiration out there and in the spirit of true over-indulgence, I believe a Pancake Buffet may be the answer.  Seriously, check these out:
