Growing up Irish and Catholic, Pancake Tuesday was common in our house. Occurred the Tuesday before Ash Wednesday... Was kind of a fun tradition, we usually had pancakes for dinner.
Blintzes, to the best of my knowledge, are crepe like pancakes that are stuffed with a ricotta cheese type mixture, and usually served with blueberries or some other fruit on top... Sometimes the blintz is then put in a pan, after it's been filled and cooked some more til it's really golden brown.
Crepes are very thin pancakes, that are just so yummy with butter and sugar... among other things...
