  • Belgian Waffles. In Belgium.

    Todd got me thinking about waffles with his previous post, and I was going through some old pictures and came across this beautiful sight.  Never in my life have I had a New York strip steak in New York, Canadian bacon in Canada, Boston cream pie in Boston, or Wisconsin cheese in Wisconsin.

    I have, however, had Belgian waffles in Belgium. I’m telling you.  These things are beyond ridiculous.  For only 2 Euros, you can have your pick from these babies on every street corner.

    The point I am trying to make is that if Eggo has the shortage they predict, I might need to relocate to Belgium.  I need my waffles.

  • Start Hoarding Waffles!

    So Kellogs announced yesterday that due to flooding problems in two bakeries, there will be Eggo Waffle shortages well into 2010.  This is either a brilliant marketing ploy…or the world’s least scary food shortage.  Beware!

  • Wake and Bacon!

    Although a few months with this little device might cause some pretty awesome increases in blood pressure and cholesterol, it is still quite tempting.

    WHAT: An alarm clock that wakes you up with the smell and sizzle of cooking bacon.

    WHY: No one likes to wake up, especially by an alarm. This clock gently wakes you up with the mouthwatering aroma of bacon, just like waking up on a Sunday morning to the smell of Mom cooking breakfast. Unless you’re Jewish.
