Are You A Pancake Person?

Pancake people seem to prefer pancakes, when they have a choice.
Seems they hit a very special spot in their heart that sparks a "rejoice."
I used to order the German pancake when we'd go to the "Pancake House."
That was my favorite, with lemon and powdered sugar. I was also biased

Towards pancakes with bananas, blueberries or strawberries and each with nuts.
I love waffles, also with different kinds of syrup and toppings but
I do go light on the butter! I don't make pancakes much anymore.
It hardly seems worth all the trouble to make just one instead of four.

It's so easy - when you're cooking for just one - that, being you,
To rationalize, "Oh well! I've got the batter made and the skillet's hot - I'll just make two."
If I make them big, two is too much so it's just a genuine waste.
Going out would simplify that problem but why go out for just one pancake?
