It's Pancake Day today.
The British tend to make thin crepe style pancakes and serve them for dessert with lemon and sugar.
I like American style pancakes (served with maple syrup) so I used a recipe via the BBC for Fluffy American Pancakes and served them for breakfast.
Another easy recipe is via Jamie Oliver's Food Tube:
Jamie Oliver's Super Easy Pancakes featuring Poppy and Daisy
Did you make pancakes today?

The Story of Keep Calm and Carry On
The Story of the Second World War Poster
A short film that tells the story behind the 'Keep Calm and Carry On' poster. Its origins at the beginning of WWII and its rediscovery in a bookshop in England in 2000, becoming one of the iconic images of the 21st century.

Professor Brian Cox demonstrates why atoms are empty
Did you watch "A Night With The Stars" on BBC2 last night?
Professor Brian Cox lectured a celebrity audience about some of the most challenging concepts in physics from the lecture theatre of the Royal Institution of Great Britain.
Here's a clip from the show:
The comedian Simon Pegg and physicist Jim Al-Khalili help him explain standing waves in a demonstration to show why atoms are so large and empty.
It was a brilliant show! If you missed it, be sure to catch in on iPlayer.
