Pancake day or Shrove Tuesday is amazing!! All the different fillings you can create is great, savoury or sweet, Pancake Day is always a hit at TruffleShuffle.

Have you ever wondered what, how and why the idea of eating pancakes on the day before Ash Wednesday came about? Well over 1,000 years ago, in the days before chocolate and crisps, making pancakes was a way of using up rich foods such as eggs, milk and sugar before the fasting season of Lent. Simple!

With only your creativity limiting what you can put in or on a pancake, today's the perfect time to get creative and get everyone in the kitchen for some cakey action!

As purveyors of the finest Big Bang Theory t-shirts around, we don't quite know how we missed seeing this little gem of a video that surfaced on YouTube a couple of months back.

In October last year Kaley Cuoco, who plays Penny, arranged a flash-mob which included the entire cast and crew of the show. During filming, Carly Rae Jepson's "Call Me Maybe" started playing in the studio, to which the flash-mob starts. Watch the video below to see an amazing performance including Gold Digger, Run the World, Big Pimpin' and Party Rock.

What we'd have given to be in the live studio audience that day!

Do you remember getting your first Casio Watch? I do - and let me tell you, it was a joy filled occasion! All the boys at school talked about the gadgets involved, and how they could change TV channels with the Casio Super power granted by the little plastic strap of love. To be 100% honest, I just loved the bright colours, how easily it jazzed up a dull outfit - and how it always seemed to be a conversation starter. Not a lot has changed actually. If I had a pound for everytime someone commented on my old school casio, I'd probably be wearing a Rolex! (but wait - they're not half as cool as the Casio!). Well, I say not a lot has changed - but Casio have totally upped their game, and brought us a whole load of cool new styles.

At TruffleShuffle we have a whole range of goodness - Slimline Casio Watches, G-shock watches and Illuminator Casio watches.

If you fancy rocking the king of all watches - then our selection of  G-shock Casio watches is where you should be looking...

If you're looking for a super cool watch which has loads of cool gadgets to it, we'd definitely recommend any of our Illimunator watches. They come complete with an alarm, chronograph, day and date functions. It is water resistant up to 30 meters (splash resistant). With a neo-display coating which lets it glow in the dark even after a short exposure to light and a scratch-resistant mineral glass crystal face which adds to the resilience of the watch.
