Flapjack art

When I was a kid, my mom used to make pancake-people. I always took great pleasure in beheading and dismembering them before I finally cut into theit torsos. This has not lead to any homicidal leanings as an adult. It has however, lead to endless amusement in the world of pancake shapes, including but not limited to butterflies, bears with no tails, and bald men holding babies (aliteration unintended).

Did you ever know how many different names there are for pancake? Here's the list from Thesaurus.com: batter cake, blanket, brown bucks, cake, crepe, flapjack, flats, fried bread, fried mush, gandy, griddlecake, hot cake, johnnycake, jonnycake, manhole cover, sourdough, tire patch, waffle, wheat, wheat cake.
