Terrible Pancakes

I've been arriving for work 50 minutes early recently, on account of taking the bus to work since I can't drive my car. Since I'm at work so early, I go to the dining hall and buy breakfast there. It's not too expensive and it's conveniently located near the office where I work. Yesterday, I bought an egg and cheese sandwich and it wasn't so bad. If it were me making the sandwich, I would have toasted the bread bun and made less eggs, but it was passing overall. Today, however, I ordered pancakes and was really excited to eat them...until I put them in my mouth. The first sensation I had was of something sour there. Pancakes aren't supposed to sour! Right? The next thing was that the pancake was a flat as a...well, a pancake. It wasn't fluffy and light like the way I usually eat my pancakes. That's when I realized that the food from the dining hall wasn't actually that good and that I myself could have done better in making breakfast. I'm not a particularly good cook and even I could do better, which is saying a lot. So from now on, I'm just going to continue eating breakfast at home. I don't know if it will save me money, but it will definitely taste much better.
