Once more, ‘Mother Nature’ has a mind of her own. It’s the height of the winter and it seems like summer is beating on my doors. Gone is the cool temperatures and in with warm temperatures and thunderstorms on the outskirts.

Now, on a day as this, what does one do? I had the answer. Clearly, I wouldn’t be hitting the jogging trails. So, I proceeded to my humble kitchenette and pulled out my waffle iron. While I was at it, I retrieved a few berries in the refrigerator along with milk, butter, egg and whole-wheat flour(yes, I keep my whole-wheat flour here). I hit the cupboard, and grabbed the baking soda and cinnamon. All I needed was ripe banana and apple.

I made yours truly a ripe banana/shredded apple waffle batter. I decided to top my waffle batter with fresh blue berries before I close the lid.

Guys,, as I listened to the rain beating on my patio floor I topped my finished waffles with fresh blue and strawberries. With a super hot cup of java, I made my way adjacent to the sliding doors watched the skies expelled buckets of precipitation below.

Ahh, as I sipped my coffee, I was hit with tremendous satisfaction and joy knowing that my stomach and palate were filled with wholesome and amazing foods. Let it rain!!
