Although National Pancake Day, also known as Shrove Tuesday (or Fat Tuesday) was officially celebrated earlier this week, IHOP, The International House of Pancakes, is celebrating this specialized holiday this Tuesday, February 23rd.
To kick off the National Pancake Day IHOP will be giving away free short stacks to everyone! Most San Diego IHOPS will be giving away free pancakes all day until 10 pm, so be sure to head over to your local IHOP to get in on the free, syrupy deliciousness!
This year, IHOP aims to raise money for the Children’s Miracle Network, and encourages pancake participants to make a donation. IHOP celebrates National Pancake Day a week later than the holiday’s official date in order to extend the fundraising window and maximize donations. IHOP has been celebrating its very own National Pancake Day since 2006, and has raised more than $3.25 million to support charities in local communities. Read more

Cuckoo for cupcakes – San Diego’s newest cupcakery opens with a bang
Grand Opening of Cups La Jolla
The place to be last Saturday night was not some swanky downtown lounge, fancy restaurant, or crowded club in the Gaslamp – it was a bakery. Yes, a bakery.

If you have walked around downtown La Jolla recently, a weekend or evening pastime that I highly recommend, you may have seen the storefront of Cups boarded up with an alluring “Coming Soon” banner outside. Originally I thought, “not another one.” Read more
