Kids had ice cream and chocolate sauce on theirs and I had lemon on mine. I feel like a stuffed pig.

No, don't do pancakes unless they come ready made.  And didn't even know it was Shrove Tuesday.

We are Ambrosian, neighbors Roman, so, yes, shorter lent, but 6 weeks of Advent!
Also parts of northern Italy are Ambrosian, in particular Milan.
