Weekend, Weather, and Waffles

This morning, the sun is shining and the birds are chirping and the kitties are purring.

I woke up today with a smile on my face and a song in my heart. It made me acutely aware of just how often that doesn't happen. My solution? Make an amazing breakfast for husband and little sister, who sheltered at our house last night during a severe thunderstorm.

The recipe is Kate's Light n' Fluffy Buttermilk Waffles at Allrecipes.com. YUM.

They call for chocolate chips, but that is too much for me at 8am, so I omitted them. And because I can't ever leave recipes alone, I tweaked it a bit to suit our tastes. With some applewood smoked bacon and topped with blueberries, they were delicious. That one goes in the permanent keepers file... even though it dirtied up half the bowls in my kitchen!

The plan for today? Enjoy my somewhat clean house and catch up on my schoolwork. It's fallen woefully behind in the month of April, due to after school review sessions to prepare my students for their upcoming AP History exam. Now who's going to clean up the kitchen?
