Sure does! *Saved* for a day I can play super-grandma. Which is not
soon....

So I'll pass it on to "soon to be" (in June) Uncle who makes
Sunday/Saturday breakfast (when he spends the night) the big treat it
used to be in our family.

Obviously, I like him.

My son can fend for himself (he's a good cook too), but he takes a
break whenever my soon to be SIL is on breakfast duty. KIDS!

I like to serve lemon curd with gingerbread; it would probably be good on
these waffles instead of the berry preserves.

My favorite gingerbread recipe comes from a Maida Heatter book on desserts,
and includes such offbeat ingredients as black pepper and dry mustard. If I
make these waffles I might try Mrs. Heatter's spicing rather than that given
above.

I made them this past Sunday morning. Served with whole raspberry syrup
and butter. Very tasty. I think the great grands will really like them
on their next visit. The spice level is just right too.
