I love spending my mornings with my son Ted. Lately we've enjoyed a handful mornings watching "My Names Earl", a very silly American show, while eating breakfast. Today was another such morning. For breakfast, we decided to eat waffles. While I mixed the batter, Ted's head seemed lost in the refrigerator. Looking at him, I knew he was in search of something, but what? Soon, Ted's head popped out and in his hand he held a bottle of Baily's Irish Cream. He opened the lid and poured a generous amount into the batter. "Mom, I bet this will taste great!" He said with a grin. Knowing that it was too late to stop the experiment, I continued mixing the batter. Minutes after I put badder in the waffle iron, our home filled with a wonderful sent. Now, I decided to set any of my second thoughts aside about the Bailey's, and impatiently waited for my waffle to finish. The golden brown crunch on the outside yet soft in the middle treat, did not disappoint.
