Pancakes and Flapjacks
Pancakes are thin, flat and often round cakes made from a batter and cooked either on a hot griddle or a frying pan. Most pancakes are quick breads which use a leavening agent such as baking powder. They are usually served with syrup, jam or fruit. In some places, such as Germany, pancakes are made from potatoes. Although associated with the United States, pancakes were actually an Ancient Greek invention, usually served as a quick breakfast for Greek troops.

Why is pancake day called that?
Shrove Tuesday (also known as Pancake Tuesday, Pancake Day, Mardi Gras, and Fat Tuesday) is the day preceding Ash Wednesday, the first day of Lent.
Shrove Tuesday is linked to Easter, so its date changes on an annual basis as does the calendar date of Easter.
The word shrove is the past tense of the English verb shrive, which means to obtain absolution for one's sins by way of Confession and doing penance. Thus Shrove Tuesday gets its name from the custom for Christians to be "shriven" before the start of Lent.
In the United Kingdom, Ireland, Australia, New Zealand and Canada, Shrove Tuesday is commonly known as "Pancake Day" or "Pancake Tuesday" due to the tradition of eating pancakes on the day. Pancakes became the food of choice so that rich ingredients such as eggs, milk, and sugar could be used up before the start of the lenten fast (Lent) and fasting begins.
Fasting is the practice of abstaining from eating food for the purpose of prayer, and seeking the will of God.

Most foods that are not-potentially hazardous - including syrup - would be labeled with something similar to a "best by", "best if used by" or "use by" date rather than an expiration date. Depending on how it has been stored, it could still be good beyond the labeled date, but will not be of prime flavor, texture or appearance. Manufacturers will not guarantee the quality of the product beyond that date.

Establish yourself as a "regular" customer and begin to interact making sure interest is on both sides of the conversations. Once you are sure they are interested, show up with one flower and ask them out for a lunch date...or breakfast. Stay away formn anything that makes her/him feel like a pick-up as working with the public brings all kinds...Be a gentleman.
How can you make pancakes without baking soda or baking powder?
You can use mayonnaise to replace the eggs.
I prefer to use milled flax seed instead of eggs. The conversion on the box I use (Hodgson Mill) says one tablespoon of flax plus 3 tablespoons of water equals one egg. I usually mix the flax substitute first and let it sit for a few minutes to let the mixture congeal. The effect that it has in food is equivalent to what you would get had you just used egg whites. I made a batch of bisquick pancakes with the egg substitute last night and they came out nice, thick and fluffy. I use flax in baking all of the time and my friends never notice the difference. Sidenote: flax is also a great source of omega 3.
There's a rule in my kitchen: No eggs, no pancakes.
