What's Cooking Wednesday; cinnamon waffles


Hello there, Grace here and Welcome to gracebook.


Now another thing you need to know about me is that I am number 4 of a total of 10 kids (not including grandkids and Mom and Dad).


There is Krystal (almost 28) and she is Married to the smartest/coolest guy I know Nick Carlson
Krystal & Nick
and they have adopted my favorite/only nephew Asher (6)
Asher
 and they are currently fostering/trying to adopt the cutest little girl ever, Bitsy Boo (4) (DCFS rules not her real name) but I call her Boo Boo, (I am Bitsy Boo's favorite person! We're best buds!)
BOO BOO

BOO BOO

Then there is Lyndsay (almost 27)


Lyndsay and Jack Sparrow (Jack Sparrow is no relation)
Then Kayla(almost 25) and she has my other three nieces Jayla(5), Sammi Jo(2) (Samantha Jolyn), and Macy(3 months)

then there is me (I'm the coolest of all the children)
me and BOO BOO


then my "twin" brother Jamie. now you may be wondering about the "'twin'" part. well we are only fifteen months apart he is currently 15 and I'm less then 5 months from my 17th birthday, and he is my bestest friend ever. we have a running joke that we practically shared a womb, and that we share a brain. (he gets it on the weekends and holidays)

then there is Hannah(12),

Daniel (10),
Daniel is in the middle the other two are friends of his

Mary (8),

Mercy(8),

now I know what you're thinking "Wait are these real twins or are these pretend too?"and the answer to that is neither mercy is adopted and so is her little brother

Sam(7) we also call him Sambo
Sambo

and Mercy and Sam are "actual" siblings, meaning same birth parents. now the next question everyone always asks is "do they know they are adopted" and the answer to that is yes they do and so does Asher and if we keep her BOO BOO will to.

my Dad (46) is the pastor of my church,
my Mom (45) is my teacher in every subject
my Mom and Dad at VBS

           Anyway today the assignment is recipes, so I'm going to tell you about the cinnamon roll waffles I made a few months ago.

         A couple years ago I was looking through the recipes on Pinterest when I came across the most delicious looking waffles I've ever seen!

          Now I'm more of a pancake person myself, but I do enjoy a waffle once in awhile.

      Here's a picture of them!

Aren't they beautiful?

          Anywho back on topic. So as what often happens as I'm Pinteresting I forget about it. But then the day before Mother's day I start thinking about what I'm making my Mom for breakfast, and yet again I come across them. So I have my Dad take me to the nearest County Market to get the stuff for them.
The next day I wake up at about 6 to get to work.
Now I have made the tradition that I wake up early on Mother's Day and clean up the house, get the other kids ready for church and make something special for breakfast.
So I get to work on breakfast and when it's ready I head on back to my parent's room and as I get to the end of the hall my Mom walks out and says "I smelled Cinnamon rolls in my sleep and woke up starving. are you making Cinnamon rolls?" so i hand her the waffles and she takes a bite and says "These are the best waffles i have ever had!"
so if Mom says something is good it must be good cause it takes a lot to get the best cook in the world to say it's the best thing they ever had!

     here's the recipe

1. Get enough tubes of cinnamon rolls so that there is 4 rolls per waffle,
2. Heat up your handy dandy waffle iron,
3. Roll the rolls like you were just going to make the rolls,
4. Place 4 in your iron and cook til the ready light goes on or for about as long as normal waffles,
5. And finally serve with the frosting dribbled over it.

     I guarantee they will be the best waffles you ever have!!!

Love always

Grace (part 4 of 10) Bennett
