I got stupid. The money was too good.

Thanks you guys. I'll pass on the well wishes.
Sarameg, your dad is a rockstar. And adorable.

Heh -- meara, I got a waffle maker from my mom last Xmas, and I mostly make 'em when M is here or I have houseguests. And I always make the whole damn box, and freeze the rest for quick breakfasts the rest of the week.

Croup coughs are SCARY sounding! Horrible noise to hear from a baby.

Lazy Erin is smart. We have a waffle maker that we haven't used yet, but the idea of having some nice homemade waffles in the freezer sounds like good motivation to start using it.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
You're all better than I; I just had the worst waffles of my life at the IHOP next door. BTW: last time I was there was the day we moved in, when I got food poisoning. Fool me once...

It's worth it! I'd had waffles before, but the first time I had these waffles I was visiting my then-girlfriend, Suz, in Pittsburgh over Thanksgiving break in 1982. I slept over (in the guest room) and her mom made the waffles in the morning. I was bergoggled by their deliciousness. What is this magic you have done?!?! I practically accosted her. "Uh, it's just the Joy of Cooking recipe. You know where you whip the egg whites..."
So I socked that away in my brain and fifteen years later when I had (a) a waffle iron and (b) some competence in the kitchen I made them for the first time.
They're so airy that when the waffle hits your mouth it's almost evanescent (though sadly not the calories) leaving just the flavor of butter and maple in your mouth.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
Yay! It was just 11:11:11 11/11/11 here.
My students wanted to do a minute of silence and make a wish. So, we did!

Can you link or send the recipe, Hec? I'll give 'em a whirl (heh) for M over Xmas break.

Let me see if I can find it online, or I'll type it up for you.
It's not that complicated really.
