Much to my delight, my mother, Dolores Borel, gave me a waffle iron for my birthday. I was told my nephew’s wife, Aubre’, had the best recipe for crispy waffles and they were right! I make the batter the night before and pop it into the refrigerator. In the morning Kent and I make the whole batch, then freeze the leftovers. My favorite toppings are strawberries and whipped cream.
