When I was a little kid, about once a month my mom would make "corn fritters" which was actually pancakes with corn in them for dinner. We thought it was a special treat. Now that I'm grown, I realize it was her being resourceful in the days before my dad's 1x monthly paycheck. ❤️

I lived in Japan and it was such an eye opening experience. Breakfast there is sometimes rice and fish or fermented soybeans with a side of kimchi. My Japanese friend taught me how to crack an egg over the hot rice and it cooks as you stir it. Pancakes with syrup can be found on the dessert menu at some restaraunts.
