esther made a sign.

jane made the mixture

and then we got down to the business

i create chaos by taking photos in continuous mode with my external flash on, causing blindness to anyone in the same room

jane's dad was particularly surprised by my approach and use it as an excuse to do a particularly elaborate setup

his throw was a great visual success.  the picture below is the catch part of the manoeuvre.  the throw bit is the picture at the top of this post

jane's mum threw a smaller pancake.  can you spot it ?

having got her eye in she then went for some more complicated shaped ones

we did actually eat them (but not me due to egg allergyness)

even esther had a go

and of course jane did too.

one thing worth noting is the difference in our kitchen since we've had our extension.  above is this year (now with extra space to the right).  below is last year (viewed from the other way round)
