My daughter is what you would call DRAMATIC! When she is happy, you know it. When she is not, well you know that too. I wanted to share a dramatic moment from this morning. It really made me laugh.
We have been trying a number of different recipes from Lorrie Flem’s book Sanity Saving Breakfast Ideas. This morning we tried Waffles. Let’s just say that my daughter has not had many waffles in her life. I have not made many waffles in my life and thought I may have decluttered my waffle iron! I found it hiding on the top shelf of the pantry and we were ready to go.
Both kids helped get the batter ready. That was fun and messy. It was then time to pour the batter into the waffle iron. I don’t have the instruction manual so I wasn’t sure how much to put in. I may have put in a little too much - but I’m not sure :)
We watched excitedly as our breakfast cooked. After a minute or so the waffle iron made a sizzling sound. It shook a little too. I said, "Oh, maybe I put too much in". To which my daughter said, "I’ve got to get out of here" and ran away! She was terrified. I couldn’t help but laugh - Oh I am mean.
Everything was fine and the waffles turned out great. I convinced her to return and she sat down at the table to taste our creation. This is where the next dramatic event played out.....
First of all, she would not stop talking. She was saying things like, "These are better than pancakes" and "This is the best breakfast I’ve had". Now those are not all that exciting, but this one is.....
"I want this to be a Praise the Lord day - for this lovely food he gave us - I'm grateful"
Can you believe that?! I guess she really liked them :)
I thought that was very cute.
Now I'm not going to mention that last night she told me the dinner looked awful  |
