Ecency Discord Weekly Posting Topic: PANCAKE DAY

in Ecency2 years ago (edited)

Hello Everyone,

I am covering the Ecency Discord posting topic for @beeber for a while longer while she has some time off.

Today we have a great sunny day here and it seems it is a good sign that Spring is approaching. This is also a fun time of year for many with many celebrations such as Carnival (Karneval/Fasching) is happening here in Germany. This is where many people dress up in fancy dress, have parades and parties. My son is today Ninjago in the kindergarten.

One of my favorite days is however, Shrove Tuesday or better known as Pancake Day. This is tomorrow. I have memories of when I was young and my mother preparing us all pancakes with squeezed lemon and sugar. These days my wife likes to prepare pancakes with the kids but with many different varieties, some with blueberries or strawberries.

Do you celebrate Pancake Day? As we are a worldwide community, maybe you have another tradition where you eat a particular food? Let us know in this week's Ecency Discord topic.

This week's Ecency Discord topic is:

PANCAKE DAY

As is usual with the Ecency Discord Topic, you are free to approach this as you like. This could be through writing a story, sharing your thoughts, taking some photos, or producing some art.

Here are a few ideas to inspire you:

  • Do you celebrate Pancake Day?
  • What do you do? Who do you celebrate it with? What pancakes do you make?
  • Do you have any memories of celebrating Pancake Day?
  • What is your favorite or least favorite Pancake and why?
  • Do you have a pancake recipe?
  • If you are not celebrating pancake day, is there another day where you eat a certain food that you can tell us about?

Feel free to let your imagination flow and use another aspect that you can think of. If you do not like pancakes, feel free to write about another food that you do like.

I will be giving out Ecency points to all participants and this week we are lucky to be sponsored by the @stickupboys again with 5 of the great LEGION tokens.

You can earn up to 15% APR paid in Legion by delegating Hive Power to @stickupcurator. By doing so, you support art and music on Hive. You can find out more about the StickUpBoys from their link here.

Not only that, but they are also sponsoring with 50 CINE tokens to celebrate the new launch of the Cine TV Blog.

Thank you guys for your support and be sure to check out their links.


RULES

The Ecency Discord Weekly Posting Topic is open for everyone on chain! There is no need to be an Ecency Discord member, no need to use Ecency to post, and no need to post into the Ecency Community.

You have time to submit your post until next Sunday evening.

Write at least 200 words, and take your time to make a good content post out of the topic.

Please write in English or for bilingual posts make one of the languages English.

The exception is German, still, a post in only German is allowed. But because of the low interest from the German speaking community the #edtopic explanation post will be only in English.
Nevertheless, I would still be very happy about more participants from the DACH.

No need to mention that it should be your own content and please always source your own or free-to-use photos properly.

Use TWO TAGS: #edtopic AND #ecencydiscord

Why use those tags? Because you are free to post in any community you choose and so we can find your postings with the tags. Secondly, we want our Discord members to interact more with each other on chain as well, and this is a possibility to find each other and leave a nice comment.

#edtopic is reserved for the weekly posting topics only, but #ecencydiscord can be used, whenever you want.


LAST WEEK - VALENTINE'S DAY

There were some great entries for last week's topic and 50 Ecency points, plus 1 LEGION and 10 CINE tokens from @stickupboys will go to:

@tengolotodo @p1k4ppa10 @ijelady @graciousvic @sirenahippie and @maquemali

Here are some highlights from last week's entries:


A Sweet Valentine Choco Chip Cookies by @maquemali


Every day is Valentine's Day! by @p1k4ppa10


To summarise:

PANCAKE DAY

Make a great post, be sure to read the rules above and don't forget the 2 tags so that I can find your post. If you have any questions, please ask in the comments or join us in Ecency Discord https://discord.gg/Ek4s7n3p.

I really appreciate the token
Can't wait to join in the next contest. The thing is preparing my pancake ingredients here are too costly to prepare one but i will try 😪

Thank you for your entry.

Perhaps there could be a way to do a post without spending any money?
Some ideas could be to tell us about a time you had them in the past, for what occasion, what are your favorites, what is your recipe, what is your method to make them, what do the ingredients cost there, where do you shop to buy them etc.

!ALIVE

@graciousvic! You Are Alive so I just staked 0.1 $ALIVE to your account on behalf of @mypathtofire. (2/20)

The tip has been paid for by the We Are Alive Tribe through the earnings on @alive.chat, feel free to swing by our daily chat any time you want.

Okay i get
Thank you for the explanation, i just thought i could make it more real by preparing it.

all i can say is....

i am fasting.

and...

PANCAKES!!!!!!!!!!!!! MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM

hahahahahahahah!!! nice job taking over for beeber!!!! i don't think I can participate this week because... FASTING lol I have 8 more days left hehehe. Even looking at the topics made my stomach growl with desire LOLOL - i'm so not kidding.. ahahaaha

ok final pancake statement and then i'm running away from this post! hehe

when I was n UK... Sam's hubby made some pancakes that were unlike anything I've ever had. American pancakes are thicker... maybe more dense. but these were almost like crepes.

kinda like your cover photo... they are much thinner than American pancakes.

but he made them with sugar and lemon and cinnamon. and then rolled them up into like... well, rolls! LOL

and OH MY GOSH. they were to die for. and now i'm even more hungry hahahahahaah

HAPPY PANCAKE DAY LOL

Great work on sticking with the fasting, it is so good for you. I haven't been so good at sticking with it this year, but there is still time.

Those pancakes you describe sound like the ones my mother used to make and although as a kid I would have wanted chocolate or something similar, I did still enjoy them. Now I like them still and have fond memories too.

The UK/French versions are quite similar, I didn't try the American style, but they seem much thicker!

Happy Pancake Day too!

oh the year is still early! hehehe

and yep! he made it with chocolate for his son!!! I didn't have that one. just the kind he made for me and I was just so shocked to have lemon with pancakes! but it was sooooo so good!!!!

the American style is SO thick LOL you get so full on them hahahaha (typical Americans LOL)

and they put all kinds of stuff on it - you dont' even want to know. by the end it's not even breakfast - its just this crazy calorie filled excessively decadent DESSERT hhahaha

they put candies and sauces and whipped cream and sprinkles! ughhhh. just give me straight pancakes with butter and maple syrup and i'm in heaven heheh

and yeah - i do this fast usually .. hmmm once a year? it's a 20 day one.
I eat fruits and veggies on day 1 and 2.
then 16 days of only fruit/veggie juices or teas, water
then 2 days coming out to prepare your body to go back on food with fruits and veggies again.

sometimes dead center in the middle, i'll do a dry fast for 2 days. or - maybe just a water fast. kinda like to intensify it right in the middle

Now I'm at the point where i'm pretty balanced, without too many cravings - but I made the mistake of saving some new recipes on instagram last night. BAD IDEA. hahahahahahahahahahahaha

That sounds like a great fasting plan which can balance up the eating of food and get your body and mind in great shape. I have heard and seen that it is super healthy to do it once per year too.

I know what you mean when fasting,.. your mind sort of drifts and you plan what you will eat afterwards! lol

Great work on your fast and I hope my post was not too tempting for you.

it was TORTURE!!!

but hey. fun talking to you LOLOLOLOL (and i might have just added a new item to my list of things to enjoy in the first few days breaking my fast) hahahahaha

Same here! It is always a pleasure. 😊

So we're making pancakes this week? Works for me but let's have a quick !PIZZA first.

If you make some, don't forget to post on discord. I'll definitely make some. I have Apfelmuss from Schland! 🤣

Did Mama Grinder send you that out there? Aren't you a little old for Apfelmuss? 😅

!PIZZA

She did indeed and I was keeping it for a special occasion 😂

... and thanks for calling me old! ☺️

Just old as in an OG old.. !LOL

If it wasn't for window blinds...
It'd be curtains for all us.

Do you celebrate Pancake Day?

I don't think we do celebrate pancake day cause I wasn't brought up in my state. All my life, I rarely go there but I know there's a special day we do celebrate which has to do with something related to our community. It is more of a tradition where people gather in a certain area, display their skills, dance and talk about things.

That sounds like a good tradition and fun time for everyone.

Wow 😍

hi Steve, I have not participated in the #edtopic #ecencydiscord postings before or in #plantpower (vegan) community so I have taken the opportunity to do both with my post! Cool topic!

https://ecency.com/hive-180569/@samsmith1971/another-flippin-shrove-tuesday

Thanks for your entry. I am keen to see your recipe. 💪😃

My two schoolchildren have been asking for several days - when is Maslenitsa and pancakes)) The youngest is 8 years old. At the weekend we will go to the park and eat pancakes in the fresh air, with different fillings. I love with caviar, and children with chocolate and honey.

That sounds great. I didn't hear about pancakes with caviar before, but I did hear of the deep-fried variant on my travels. My 2 children love pancakes too, usually with fruit or the chocolate crepes style too. !ALIVE
