Pancake Day
Ash Wednesday is the day in February when the Christian period of Lent begins. This refers,
to the time when Christ went into the desert and fasted for filly days. Although not many people
actually give up eating during this period, on Pancake Thursday, the day before Ash Wednesda�; they
eat lots of pancakes. They are made from flour, milk and eggs, and fried in a hot pan. Many towns
also hold pancake races on that day. People run along the streets holding a frying pan and throwing
the . pancakes in the air. Of course if they drop the pancake they lose the race.
