gingerbread waffles with vanilla cranberry sauce

I think I have a slight obsession with breakfast.

 . . . Ok, so maybe it’s not so slight.  Allow me to rephrase.

I have a full-blown obsession with breakfast.  I do.  And I’m not afraid to admit to it.

A few weeks ago, my grandma spent the night at our house.  She took us out to dinner at this awesome restaurant, CoolFish, where we ate . . . and ate . . . and ate.  Honestly, I’m surprised I was able to stand up and walk out of there after the delicious (but incredibly filling) courses that I had.  It was insane. 

(To be fair, I think I was also insane to think that I could eat: a slice of beat and goat cheese tarte tatin, ahi tuna over Asian style noodles, and a slice of Jack Daniel’s chocolate pecan pie and white chocolate gelato.  Yeah . . . my eyes were definitely bigger than my stomach that night.) 

As soon as we got home, we all passed out on the couch.  What a way to spend a Friday night.

Dear December,

Thank you for making it oh so chilly outside.

 . . . And inside. 

You give me an excuse to drink hot chocolate on a regular basis, cover my bed in layers upon layers of blankets, and wear fuzzy socks. (Come on – you know you love your fuzzy socks too.) 

You even give me an excuse to . . . sprinkle a heap of homemade granola on top of ice cream?

Deliciousness is worth the chill, my friends.
