Comfort Food

Dreary days get me down a bit.  
On Saturday we had fog for most of the day.  On Sunday, we had a thick blanket of fog over us all day.
Today, Monday, the fog has been replaced with low cloud and a threat of heavy rain.
I decided lunch was a good time to have some Comfort Food!

Waffles were my choice.
We have a mini-waffle maker, and my recipe makes 4 small waffles.

It is an easy recipe.
In a jug, whisk together 1/2 cup flour, 1/4 tsp baking powder, a pinch of salt, 1 egg and 1/2 cup milk.
Melt 1.5oz butter and mix in. Leave to stand in the fridge for about an hour before using.

This time, I ate mine with butter and maple syrup, but they go well with any topping.

Sometimes you just need a little bit of sweet stuff to make the day better.

This month's photo is of the Band Rotunda in Queens Park, Invercargill.   The photo was taken in 2008 after I had spent a pleasurable day wandering around this wonderful park.

  1. Waffles are one of my favorites! Except covered with strawberries and whipped cream.

  3. That mini waffle maker looks a great size. Love the waffles my DD makes - as they have to be gluten free she makes them... but they are a favourite Sunday tea. And one is enough in her full size waffle maker!
    Yes, the past few days certainly have been bleak, foggy and cold here too...
