GLUTEN FREE WAFFLES
Truthfully I’ve gotten lazy when it comes to my mornings - when usually breakfast is my favorite meal! My appetite just hasn’t been what issued to in the mornings (I’m usually a bottomless pit when it comes to breakfast foods, i.e. Ron Swanson style) but lately I’ve been drinking smoothies and forgetting to nurture myself - TREAT YO SELF! So I'm treating myself to waffles, in bed, while watching Friends as I enjoy this GOODNESS - before work of course!
