Every man needs a waffle maker. Chris has one that makes waffles shaped like barnyard animals. Nothing says love like eating Chicken n’ Waffles for dinner. Take my word on this. Go for a big run then pan fry some breaded chicken, put it on top of waffles and covered it in butter and syrup.

I’m not a Vegemite hater and I actually got used to it when I was in NZ, but I don’t recommend it on waffles!!

AMY!
As someone married to a BRIT and lives in full view of Marmite (the english version of Vegimite) it is DISGUSTING!!!!!!!!!!! Oh my god. Sorry, don’t mean to offend anyone, but unless you grow up on that stuff it is awful. But, on the flip, Jerome HATES peanut butter…so….we have a vegimite versus PB war.

Oh ick….but, I am a HUGE waffle fan and love my Belgium waffle maker! Glad you like yours! your mom is adorable!

I think Amy may have wanted this gift more than Danny. That’s not to say that he wasn’t the chow hound over those delicious waffles, but Amy’s excitement was difficult to mask, with good reason…..they were to bury your head in and die for!!!
It has been over 20 years since I have eaten a pancake or waffle and I was willing to go another 20, till that fateful morning! There in front of me was a grand platter of eggbeater concoction that was first thing I had a real taste for , however, Amy brought forth a beautiful plate dressed up in glorious berries, a small amount of powderd sugar,and a beautiful brown waffle nestled below. One for me and one for Alex, right across from me ,(in arms reach). I apparently forgot that I didn’t care much for waffles because before I could look up to inventory the other plates, mine was empty, clean, —ready for the shelf clean!!! I paused long enough to realize and remember that Alex really does not care for the batter breakfast and had comsumed just half of his. As he pushed it aside, I pulled it in my direction and helped him put some of the egg on his plate (good boy). At that point, he was just a week from having a total hip replacement so I knew his appetite was not his personal best . I wasted no time in taking full advantage!!!!

In case you’re wondering why such a long comment……..well this is what happpens when you don’t have your own blog. Thanks Amy for allowing me more “air time” than I deserve.

Vegemite — like eating ear wax in my opinion.

Now waffles, on the other hand, are a different story!! Bill is the waffle king at our house. His waffle iron tweets like a bird when the waffle is ready. You should chat with Katie about how she’s modified his recipe to fit her dietary needs. I believe she adds in wheat germ, flax meal, and chopped walnuts. She tops the whole thing with berries, bananas, and yogurt. She is also fond of whole wheat-pumpkin and gingerbread flavored! Power breakfast for power people!!!
