My New Love.

Ahhhhh,
Behold.

My new gigantic waffle maker.



Our waffle maker broke a few months ago and when I was looking around at a standard replacement it occurred to me that if I buy a normal waffle maker it would take me no less than 4.5 hours to make breakfast one
waffle
at
a
time
for 8 people.....uhhhh nothankyou.

And let's face it.
Right after I finished that process it'd be time to cook lunch.
And as much as I like spending every waking moment in the kitchen I decided that a conventional waffle maker just may not be what our oversized family needed.

Thus the dream of this was born.



Ahhhhh,
let's all just take a moment shall we....

It's big, it makes 6 waffles at a time, it's perty, it made me laugh when I noticed it said this on the side


and it should cut my breakfast cooking time down to only around 1.5 hours.
Holla!

It also came with a recipe book with some yumminess such as this



and this

but not this.

Blech.
I'm not feeling the love on this one but I'm willing to give it a try.
Don't hate....appreciate.

So come on in,
the kitchens open!

  2. Yum! Where did you find that terrific device? My big problem with waffles is that I never get to sit down while the kids are still eating. I'd love to make 12 in two batches! Brilliance!!!

  4. Oh no way! We *heart* waffles in our house! I bought my husband a Pro-Belgian waffle iron for Christmas and wow that thing is amazing! We have 3 with gluten/dairy allergies so we have to do 2 different batches and it whirs along great...and the belgian waffles are so hearty we don't have to make too many...of course I'm only feeding 2 boys right now and they are on the small side!

  7. And I was thrilled with my birthday gift this year from my parents: large toaster oven that can toast 6 pieces of bread or FROZEN waffles at once. Congratulations on your waffle maker, show off!! :)

    What a blessing to have so many mouths to feed!!
