Breakfast, Brunch, Lunch and Dinner. Waffles are a perfect meal whenever you feel like them. In fact top with some vanilla ice cream, strawberries and chocolate sauce and you can even include them in dessert. I was excited to find a recipe that included buttermilk, one of our favourite ingredients, over at The Avid Appetite when I received Rachel for my assignment for the June edition of The Secret Recipe Club. I have been reading Rachel’s blog through Secret Recipe Club for ages. I was well acquainted with her. An abundance of recipes, and posts about her family life will greet you. I loved reading about all her adventures with her little one Penelope. Made me think of when we had little ones running around. Our youngest is now ten, time really does fly. Thanks Rachel, for our lovely Saturday afternoon, where we sat around the table with family, bacon, and of course these amazing waffles!
