What do you mean homemade waffles?

Posted in About The Kids

A conversation between me and my sons best friend this morning:

 

Me:  "Do you guys want waffles or pancakes for breakfast?"

 

Friend:  "What kind of waffles do you have?"

 

Son:  "She makes 'em herself.  Homemade.

 

Me:  "I make them myself but I can add some blueberries if you want."

 

Friend (with a look of confusion on his face):  "What do you mean?  Do you have any regular waffles?"

 

Me:  "They're pretty much the same as the ones in a box.  Flour, milk and other stuff."

 

Friend (unsure):  Oooookaaaaay.

 

He gobbled them down.  I also expected a comment about the maple syurp (taken from family maple trees!) but, he said nothing.  Score 1 for the weird homemade stuff!

Sweet story. I wonder if that kid will go home and let his mom know that not all waffles come from a box! :)

His mom and I actually discussed this event! She and I are good friends and we had quite a laugh about it.
