When I first came back from college I never got to see my dad, because he works 2:30pm-1:00am. As a result of this I started a 2 am Pancake tradition. I was living with my mom, and the dog always barked when you would leave and return, and my mom would throw a fit if I left in the middle of the night. My dad would call me and sing the Mission Impossible theme song, and I would climb out my bedroom window, and we’d have epic daddy/daughter dates early in the morning.

We just reinstituted 2 am Pancakes the other morning. It was glorious.
