Whenever I go home to Minnesota to visit my family, there’s one thing that I always request: Grandma’s overnight yeasted waffles. To me, these are the quintessential waffles and all others are held to their standard. They’re crispy on the outside and tender in the middles, but they’re also a touch chewy from the overnight rise with yeast. That same yeast and long rise also give these waffles an unmatchable flavor, particularly when paired with a drizzle of Wisconsin maple syrup or homemade apple butter. Everyone has their favorite waffle recipe — here is mine.

All the Many Delicious, Helpful, Thoughtful, Interesting, Beautiful Things — Weekend Meditation

Pin_it_button

The other day I was standing on a chair in front of my very full cupboards, trying to find room to stash some of the gifts I’d received over the holidays. Naturally, I got to thinking about stuff, about all the endless piles of stuff, all the many, many things, in my life. Now, I know there’s a high value placed on being clutter-free and minimal these days. I know you’re expecting me to launch into an anti-materialism, it’s-all-just-landfill-waiting-to-happen rant right now but actually, the opposite feelings came over me.

I looked from my little pile of kitchen gifts and into my already full cupboards and felt a wave of pleasure and appreciation. Wow, I thought. Look at all this amazing stuff! How lucky I am, how fortunate, to have all these delicious, helpful, thoughtful, interesting, beautiful things in my life!
