There is no way I could ever talk my husband into pancakes for dinner. When I was growing up, my Mom would do pancake dinners occasionally but only when my father was not home for dinner, as he was also not a pancakes for dinner fan.
We wound up having the last of the onion soup and a salad.
My wife is more of a pancakes-for-breakfast type, and occasionally lunch. But even those are infrequent. We're not big breakfast eaters here, she's trying to limit her carbs and I'm just not hungry when I first wake up. A glass of orange juice to take my morning pills with is usually enough.
