Are you celebrating St George's Day?


ASDA just sent through their suggestions for things to serve for St George's Day next week which made me think, hmmmm I didn't even realise it WAS St George's Day ! I often blog special Irish recipes for St Patrick's Day, Welsh ones for St David's Day and Scottish ones for Burns Night but I always totally bypass St George's Day which is crazy, as I'm English ! So ASDA suggest crumpets, bangers and mash and a traditional roast dinner (which I do every week anyway). Any other bright ideas for a classic English dish I can cook in honour of St George's Day? Maybe I should attempt the fabulous dragon cake over at Cake Photos Life? (Slightly out of my league !) There's always the option of a full English breakfast (but for lunch, not breakfast !). Or maybe I'll make the kids laugh by producing Spotted Dick and custard !
