Every Sunday, for as long as I remember, I've had chocolate chip pancakes for breakfast. We have so many cultures that we didn't really have a tradition. My dad wanted me too have a tradition, so every Sunday we have pancake. When I was really little, my family used to go to a diner for pancakes on Sunday. The pancakes weren't very good, but we couldn't make them so we kept going anyway. One day, my dad decided to make pancakes. He got a cookbook and used one of the recipes. We liked them, but thought they could be better. My dad made more, and as he did, he changed the recipe a little. He changed them more and more, and eventually he made his own. I can't remember too well, but my dad says he started making these amazing pancakes since I was two. Now when I eat other pancakes, I think they taste disgusting. Every year, when I have a sleep over party on my birthday, we have pancakes for breakfast. Every time someone tries them, they say they are some of the best pancakes they've ever had, with or without chocolate chips.
