Sorry for my late entry to the final week of @cookwithus. Secret Santa Edition
I had to rush off last minute to Austria to see my family in the Tyrolian Alps, my grandmother passed away and the time table for a Roman Catholic Funeral is pretty intense it involves 3 days of praying. I didn't have time for any of my usual activities, I didn't really have the desire to eat food which isn't that normal for me! My grandmother taught me so much, she spent her whole life in the garden, growing her own food and making everything from scratch. She lived to 92 and her body was pretty much in good health except the pain her back from a hard life carrying sacks of potatoes up and down the mountain.
I just got back the other day and missed the first snow to arrive but even so I still got in the christmasy spirit and visited the christmas market which isn't quite like here in Spain (it doesn't feel like xmas is coming at all here!)
One thing I always struggled with on family xmas occasions is what to eat for breakfast, i'd try to skip it and wait for the main meal but since I got a waffle maker what better breakfast solution than this....
I know my vegan friend @plantstoplanks would be down for this so I dedicate the dish to her!
