Waffling Politicians

 

Sometimes I skip steps in my conversations. I've been using a Krusteaz buttermilk waffle mix but using the measurements from a King Arthur mix and sifting the mix really makes a good difference. They're super fluffy and tasty. Also, making the batter in the morning is way better than making the night before and chilling in the fridge - it tends to deflate in the cold.

M: Those politicians keep changing their stances!
L: Oh, we're out of eggs.
M: *confused*
L: They are waffling and I want waffles so I could make the batter BUT...
M: Ah, I see.

Waffle Math

The recipe I use is this one and it's simple and tasty. I add spices to it to, ah, spice it up but it's a great plain waffle recipe. I have two waffle irons - a Captain America shield one (makes one shield at a time) and a dinosaur one (it makes five mini dino waffles at a time). To help the morning run smoothly, I make the batter the night before and my Mark cooks it up in the morning.

L2: Should I make two batches of waffle batter?
L1: How much does one batch make?
L2: Four captains and ten dinosaurs, where five dinos equal one captain.
L3: Eat!!
