Pancakes for Dinner
I blogged a while back about doing French toast for dinner on occasion, and after finding a box of Kodiak Cakes mix in the cupboard, I remembered that pancakes are also awesome for dinner. I’ve also been admiring some of Heather’s pancake recipes lately and wondering how I forgot about them.
