Pancakes!

Visit IHOP on Tuesday, February 24th from 7am to 10pm to receive one free short stack of their famous pancakes in celebration of National Pancake Day. All they ask is you make a donation to support local children’s hospitals through the Children’s Miracle Network. Why Tuesday? Well, it's Fat Tuesday and apparently, in preparation for Lent, people used to use up their supplies of eggs, milk, butter and other dairy products that day since eating dairy was prohibited during Lent. Interesting :) No matter the history, now it means yummy pancakes and helping out a great cause! What could be better?
