Overheard in the supermarket

yesterday afternoon.
Infants' school child "Mum...tomorrow is Pancake Tuesday"
Mother "Well, really it's Shrove Tuesday love"
Child "Why is it called Shrove Tuesday?"
Mother "Because we eat pancakes that day."

And I thought my logic was dodgy!

  1. And it turned out to be Toaster Waffle Tuesday here, as we celebrated our new, non-firestarting toaster.
