In honor of National Pancake Day, tomorrow, Tuesday, February 23rd, 2010, all participating IHOP restaurants across the nation will be providing all of its customers with a free short-stack of buttermilk pancakes.

In return, each customer is encouraged to make a donation to the Children's Miracle Network.

Dating back several centuries, National Pancake Day was born when the English made preparations for fasting during Lent.

Since strict rules forbade the consuming of all diary products during this time, pancakes were made to use up the surplus supply of milk, eggs, butter, and other diary products .... thus the christening of Pancake Tuesday.
