I was too lazy to make "real" waffles, so I used frozen ones. Then I microwaved some frozen blueberries and poured juice and all over the waffles...I did use real maple syrup, though. It was delicious.<br /><br />I loved to play pinball! I lived in a country village when I was a teen, and the grocery store had a pool hall where we hung out. They had the best pinball machine in there. Much more exciting than video games, IMO.<br /><br />Nice post!Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14201860227400017841noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6560071949400915555.post-16085907183470726332011-03-15T04:27:46.348-05:002011-03-15T04:27:46.348-05:00Steph, isn't it interesting what things trigge...Steph, isn't it interesting what things trigger long-lost memories?
