National Waffle Day

Here's one more national holiday that I can get behind. I am not a fan of breakfast food, mainly because I don't like eggs. But waffles are ok with me. The perfect waffle has a crispy outside and a spongy inside. Waffle toppings are hugely important, fruit and real whipped cream are my preference. I don't like syrup that is too sweet and it must be poured with restraint. Otherwise I feel like I am having syrup with a side of waffle. Also, I don't like butter on my waffles, the taste gets lost under the syrup. If all of my very minor issues can be achieved then waffles are delightful. (Needless to say I don't have waffles that often.)

Here are a few waffle recipes from epicurious.com. Don't get scared away by the titles, the recipes are simple to make and the results are wonderful.
