Mmmm, Pancakes!

One of Ben's classmates told him about a pancake house that his parents take him to dinner at sometimes, and Ben (naturally intrigued by the thought of chocolate chip pancakes and hot chocolate for dinner) has been asking to go every day for a week. The trouble was I didn't know what pancake house he was talking about. I finally ran into his friend's mom at school and asked her where it was.

And so tonight for dinner we took the kids to The Original Pancake House which turned out to be by far the best place I have ever been to for pancakes. Ben got his chocolate chip pancakes (which I sampled - delicious), and I got a Dutch Baby, filled with fresh sliced strawberries, powdered sugar, and lemon juice. It was sooooo good! We will definitely be returning. You can actually eat healthy there as well (but where's the fun in that?)

The kids are now working off their pancake-induced sugar highs by wrestling with each other.
