Sounds yummy! I've never had chicken and waffles. Do you make a regular
breakfast-type waffle, or is it different somehow? Very impressive that he
can make good gravy -- it'll make him a good catch someday (I personally
make terrible gravy...and my 5-yo won't even eat it!).

Thanks for sharingyour story.
