Chuck’s Waffles & Strawberry Sauce

Thank the heavens I made it through the week! The first full
work week back after a nice long break. It was pretty horrible. I mean just
switching my schedule to get up at 5 am instead of go to bed then was rough, and
then I got sacked with a killer cold. Luckily the construction season is slow
right now so it’s not terrible that I’m a hot mess right now, next week will be
better right?

On the last glorious day of our little stay-cation Chuck did
the unthinkable and cooked for me, all day! Ok so we woke up late and binged on
popcorn at the movies for dinner, so it was only really two meals, but still that’s
huge for a guy with kitchen-phobia. Lunch was some leftovers and this SimpleParmesan Pasta recipe that I taught him way back when he was living on his
own. Breakfast on the other hand was one for the ages.

You see that? Am I a lucky girl or what?

Chuck’s Waffles with Strawberry Sauce


Waffle Mix
1 pint strawberries (fresh, stems removed or frozen)
1/3 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla


Prepare the waffles according to package instructions. Combine strawberries, sugar, and vanilla in a saucepan over medium high heat, stirring often for about 15 minutes. Remove from heat and puree about 1/2 to 1/3 of the mixture in a blender before serving. 

I think I might be turning him. I mean he was always one to
appreciate good food, but to cook it? I must be rubbing off on him. I’m not
complaining, he can go ahead and keep on experimenting, I’ll keep testing it
for him.

How did your first full week back go?
