Pulling up to the house and the mood is immediately set with the red glowing from within. The Good Food Gang gathers each pancake night as a yearly tradition to devour an array of savoury and sweet pancakes. Each brings a little offering to the occasion but LC pulled out all the stops to make this a Valentine’s Pancake Day special. The table is adorned with heart shaped placemats and coasters with an individual gift for each diner, not forgetting a crème egg as a sweet treat. We have a couple of extras to the gang tonight but they’re equally as enthusiastic for the occasion. Savoury pancakes are not to be scoffed at until they’re tried. Southern fried chicken pieces with southern style gravy and grated cheddar cheese was the meaty offering thanks to LC. The veggie option is always delivered by HT with cheddar cheese, sun-dried tomatoes, basil and balsamic glaze. RS bringing the sweet treats with the classic lemon and sugar as well as Nutella and strawberries.

One final surprise of the night was a delivery from Bakes by Gee (www.bakesbygee.co.uk) that LC had organised. A mixed box (2 x Triple Choc Brownies, 2 x Jammy Dodger Blondies, 2 x Cupcakes, 2 x Red Velvet Deep Dish Cookies and 2 x Milky Bar Cornflake Sandwiches) of baked, delicious treats arrived for us to round off the evening full of sugar.
