Mr. Spackman’s Famous Waffles

My husband and I have known a young woman named Margaret since her birth and she is an important person in our lives. When she was a little tyke she loved it when Mr. Spackman would make her some waffles no matter what meal.

These are the waffles our young family ate many Sundays when we came home from church. Betsy and I particularly liked these with Nutella and bananas and everyone in the family (except me) ate them with peanut butter and maple syrup. Tom had a friend, Doug, who preferred them with peanut butter, Nutella topped with maple syrup.

From Betsy:  Also, I lived on these waffles for one semester at college, eating them probably 3-4 times/week for dinner. I'm sure it had something to do with comfort (and ease, since they're so fast to cook).
