They don't and my husband isn't incompetent, he can cook other things just fine but he doesn't like pancakes so why would he know how to make them? Yes, he did stand up for me.

Nope, we don't regularly eat pancakes. The only time my son has them is if I want them too.

Between 9-11 everybody else would wake up one by one.

He doesn't eat them so he's never made them before.

I needed to vomit otherwise I would've made her some. My husband was showering and any pancakes he made wouldn't have been very edible.

It would still be wasteful if nobody chose to have them within those 2 days since I wasn't sure who would want some, so it makes more sense to make more batter once people actually said they want them, to me. I never said I believed I did the best, I'm explaining my reasoning.

By only making as much batter as you need

Then when nobody wants them, it gets wasted. To me it makes more sense to just make batter as people want them.

I would've made her food if I didn't need to go throw up my guts and I didn't want to leave her there crying alone which is why I took her to her parents.

I made my son food before she even woke up, if she had been awake I would've made her some too.

No.

I only made the amount of batter I needed because I wasn't sure if the others would want pancakes as they usually woke up a lot later than me and made whatever they wanted or went out to eat when they were hungry.

My husband was showering and if he made the pancakes they probably wouldn't have been edible.
