Maple Syrup Showdown

The last of the PC maple syrup purchased at Loblaws affiliated stores (fancy light) vs medium grade syrup purchased at Marche Jean Talon in Montreal.


We are comparing apples and oranges here with medium vs light, but we both enjoyed the can a bit more. It could be we've been eating the light for years and the change was good?

Janice Makes a Waffle Comeback!!!

Some oil + cooking till crispy = winning waffles by me this weekend!!

Peanut Butter and Syrup

For those people out there, namely in Sarnia, who are against the PB+Syrup idea on waffles and pancakes, please refer to this link. Here, you will see a recipe that specifically combines them into a tasty concoction.

Waffle #2 by Popular Request

So the second waffle wasn't "perfect" but it was definitely still terrific. No chocolate chips on this one. Instead it's PB + Syrup. Gross I know but to each his/her own.






Some people are claiming pancakes can be as tasty as waffles. Those people are mistaken.

A Post for Jackie - Boston Pizza, Dundas Valley, Waffles

Jackie likes posts that have a story. This post doesn't.

Boston Pizza. I signed up for the mailing list to get a coupon for a free starter. We went last weekend. Janice had potato skins and I had ribs and spaghetti.

Waffles. I rose to the waffle challenge and made two terrific waffles.










It looks like this concludes the waffle war.


The Dundas Valley trail centre sells some random food. I had an ice cream sandwich. Janice stepped up the spending a notch and had a drumstick. Both were tasty. I wouldn't recommend getting much else there because the "warm" food looked a little sketchy. I haven't had any street meat hotdogs since 2002 but I will definitely eat one of those dogs before I hit the DVTC for a hot dog.

Bonus - Oatmeal Chocolate Chip cookies - look for news about these once I eat one today.

Ian's Waffle Offense

Point 1 - I only cleaned the waffle maker at Janice's behest. Prior to that we were making spectacular waffles thanks to the President (well truthfully they're not spectacular but they're good and convenient)

Point 2 - I've cleaned it before without incident thanks to my reliable re-seasoning methodology

Point 3 - I agree with Janice - I do make good waffles

Janice's Waffle Defence

Point 1 - Ian is a better waffle maker than me, but I'm not that bad

Point 2 - while I was out kayaking the week before my first waffle incident, Ian stuck one on there pretty good. Convenient that there were no pics of that one.

Point 3 - the waffle maker non-stick thingy does seem kinda done.

Point 4 - the trouble started when Ian decided to wash the waffle maker because it was smelling kinda sketchy.

Waffles

I've been making the waffles lately but the last two weekends Janice took over the reins. She was a little out of practice










This was the result last weekend. Now this weekend the situation was similar if not slightly worse - you be the judge










It's starting to look like maybe this isn't Janice's fault and the waffle maker might be letting the team down. Look forward to a fun update next weekend

This promises to be a blog filled week.
Monday - Free Pizza
Thursday - Fancy Reception
Randday - Loblaw's rant and the summer Insider Report!

The Gaint Waffle That Ian Ate for Breakfast

Yes, it was hearty and yes, he ate it all!
