day earlier than Lent begins on Ash Wednesday. The call Shrove comes from the
vintage middle English phrase 'Shriven' that means to go to confession to

use of up all of the fattening elements within the residence before Lent, in
order that human beings were prepared to rapid in the course of Lent. The
fattening ingredients that the general public had of their houses in those days
have been eggs and milk. a totally easy recipe to deplete those elements was to
mix them with a few flour and make pancakes!
