Short stack giveaway
Feb. 24 is National Pancake Day.

To celebrate, IHOP restaurants around the country — including 19 in Utah — will be giving away a complimentary short-stack of buttermilk pancakes. In return, customers are asked to make a donation to Primary Children’s Medical Center and Children's Miracle Network.

The free short-stack will be served from 7 a.m. to 10 p.m and will be limited to one per dine-in customer. To find the nearest location visit ihoppancakeday.com.

Just in case you are wondering: the event is held on Shrove Tuesday, the day before the beginning of Lent. People would traditionally make pancakes to use up all their eggs, milk, butter, ingredients they would abstain from for the next 40 days.
