Day 5 at the Campbells

I can't take the credit for this meal...not even a teensy, weeny bit. It's all thanks to Darryl and Jenn.

It all started during high school music trips to the US which usually resulted in a meal at Denny's. It was at Denny's that my love affair with Belgian waffles began.

For months now I've been green with envy over Darryl, Jenn & Lucas's Sunday morning waffle breakfast routine. What a decadent breakfast to have on a regular basis! I was surprised and completely ecstatic when last week at the beginning of their visit, Lucas presented us with a beautiful Cuisinart waffle maker of our very own! I LOVE IT!!!

While I'll admit, my topping choices turn waffles into more of a plate-sized dessert than a breakfast entree I can't imagine eating them any other way than covered in fruit, ice cream (or my favourite Creamy Danone vanilla yogurt), whip cream and a sprinkling of confectioners sugar. YUMMMMMMMMY!!!

Darryl and Jenn...have I mentioned how much I LOVE YOU for bringing the waffle routine into our home now, too?!

In this picture, I had run out of berries so some President's Choice Blue Menu raspberry jam was an excellent substitute on short notice.


Lastly...Mackenzie our almost-14 year old daughter was desperately hungry for a late night snack. She ended up making a ham & bacon sandwich. An odd combo perhaps...but any time a teenager will reach for protein instead of chips and pop is fine by me.

Sorry...that picture should be rotated but it didn't want to cooperate with iPhoto tonight.
