Pancakes
Happy Pancake Day! Pancakes were first mentioned in England in 1439. People were not supposed to eat butter and eggs during the 40 days of Lent so they used them up by making pancakes. It's also called Shrove Tuesday. To shrive meant to confess your sins so people shrove their sins before Lent. The name Lent comes from an Old English word meaning 'lengthen' because the days are getting longer.
