Blueberry and Banana Waffles

It's raining outside and it made me think of Waffles. Although it's 85 degrees out. So I broke out the 43 year old Waffle Iron. I can't believe it still works and it's now in the Jungle with us. I wish I knew who gave it to us for a wedding present. If it's you let me know. I want to thank you for such a long lasting gift. I remember the first time I used it, I don't think there was any cooking spray like Pam, so of course everything stuck to the waffle iron. Or I just didn't know there was a spray to put on before you put in the batter. I was only 20. I leaned over the decades. Now that sounds strange.. decades really. I asked Chuck to put butter on the waffles while I took pictures. I love the way he is holding the butter. Don't you? And aren't you glad you didn't stay for breakfast?
