It's Mardi Gras, And Also National Pancake Day!

 It's Mardi Gras . . . or "Fat Tuesday" if you don't want to get all French about it. And that means it's also NATIONAL PANCAKE DAY.

Pancakes on Mardi Gras are a thing because they help people get rid of all the butter, eggs, and milk in their fridge before Ash Wednesday, which is the start of Lent.

As always, you can get a free short stack at IHOP today. They just encourage you to donate a few bucks to charity instead of paying. Here are a few quick stats to help celebrate National Pancake Day . . .
