National Pancake Day

The laziest man I ever met put popcorn in his pancakes so they would turn over by themselves. -W.C. Fields

The wikipedia article on pancakes describes pancakes as follows:

A pancake, also known as a hotcake or flapjack (in North America) is a flat cake, often thin, flat, and round, prepared from a starch-based batter and cooked on a hot surface such as griddle or frying pan. In Britain it is often made without a raising agent, and is similar to a crêpe. In America, a raising agent is used (typically baking powder). The American pancake is similar to a Scotch pancake or drop scone.
