I figure that it costs me less than $1 for the ingredients to make a batch of
pancakes that will feed four people, and that is using real ingredients. My
scratch pancakes are a hell of a lot better than anything I have ever had in a
restaurant. Then there is the cost of the syrup. I use real maple syrup, not
that grotesque sugar slop they give you in restaurants.
