Sunday morning at the time today’s snapshot lede was taken. And being Sunday morning, that meant plenty of time to whip-up from-scratch waffles on the ol’ (and we mean old, like 30-plus years!) Belgian waffle iron. Don’t cheat yourself out of enjoying from-scratch waffles. Cooking from scratch is one of the best expressions of self-care (and care & love for your housemates, if you have that particular living arrangement and they also like your cooking) you can undertake. Get the real buttermilk out, melt some butter, throw in the eggs; add all that wet stuff to the flour & sugar & powder & soda & salt; mix, but not too well, otherwise you’ll end up with tough & chewy waffles, not the crispy-on-the-outside but fluffy melt-in-your mouth on-the-inside kind shown here. Show yourself some love & care & tenderness. Do it, don’t let Big Breakfast dictate how you should eat. Down with Kelloggs, down with General Mills. Up with your own supply!
