Today is Pancake Day. This is a British event. We eat pancakes at home. It's fun.　　

Pancake Day is a Christian spring event. Pancakes are made at home on Tuesday about 40 days before the Easter festivities. The pancakes are sweet and tasty, with eggs, milk and butter. After Pancake Day, people eat simple meals until Easter Day.

There are also pancake races in town. The pancake race starts with making pancakes and then running with frying pans.
