Adam’s Waffles
On Mother’s Day, we are going to make my mom homemade waffles because the first time we had them, she really savored every bite. She loaded hers with raspberries and powdered sugar, and downed three (that is a lot for her). We are going to give them to her loaded with strawberries, blueberries, raspberries and powdered sugar.Adam Hangland, fifth grade, Commerce City
