This tasty, mouth water delight brings lots of smiles to little ones faces. Furthermore, a mouth watering waffle is an excellent choice to bribe little ones to help you clean your garden. Yes, you read it correctly.
In the past few weeks I have been rather busy with opening up a new English/French virtual classroom here on the islands. Furthermore, the snack shop I run 4 nights a week has doubled in size. Sunday we had over 500 people show up to play Bingo. Now that takes a lot of work and preparation to make the food and serve this many people.
Now people realize that I am a computer technician and hard drive recovery expert. So they have asked me to write a program that can generate unique Bingo card numbers for their panels. Yes, I realize that there are free Bingo card number generators on the Internet. Furthermore, you can buy programs to do this. But the problem is this. When they use these number generator they can create the same numbers on their panels as others have. Each person who plays this game believe they have a better chance of winning the grand prize if their numbers are unique.
This program is another story and will need to be told in a separate post. Now back to the waffles, chocolate and whipping cream. Last week we had some major winds come up from the south that sprayed my garden with tons of leaves. I didn’t have time to do all that needed to be done so I decided to use bribery to get more done in a short amount of time.
I had prepared over 200 waffles for Sunday and had 15 left over. I decided to prepare the 15 waffles for my nieces and nephews as a treat. The look in their eyes, the excitement on their faces, and the delight they had eating them was worth the time and effort. Furthermore, as they sat there filling their small faces with chocolate and whipping cream was the perfect opportunity to ask for a small service. I needed my garden cleaned and the boys love to do this. As they sat there eating the waffles they couldn’t say no to me.
So you see the moral of my story is this. With a little bit of sweet talk and waffles, chocolate, and whipping cream you can get a lot done in a short amount of time. So next time you need a little help offer up some delicious waffles topped with chocolate and whipping cream.

Busy girl it seems. Another gal on here seems to like whipping cream on all manner of things.

Yes, it has been a busy few weeks and not a lot of time to come here. I wanted to post a funny story today and decided to take the time to do this. Miss all of you and hope to be here a bit more. No guaranties because of work and all I am doing right now.

Yes, I sure have. I wanted to stop by before now, but each time I think I can something come up and then it is too late to stop by. I have missed everyone on here and the great stories. Trying now to find a few minutes to take to read somes stuff here today. Hopefully things will slow down a bit and I can stop by m9ore often.

It sounds like you have been very busy. The waffles topped with chocolate and whipping cream sounds delicious. I think I'd like mine with some strawberries on it, please.

@RichardMeister That sounds so much better than what they offer us here on the islands. I miss fresh strawberries. I think I should grow some of my own here and then I can have fresh ones to put on top of the waffles.

@poehere Well, in that case maybe I'll pass on the strawberries. In a month or so I should be able to get fresh grown ones at the fruit/vegetable stand just down the street from where I live. They grow most of what they sell.
