Belgium and Waffles

Belgium

is a

glorious

country

each

city

is

unique

with its own story

and

charm

I fell

in

love

with

Bruges

head over heels

in love

as

Bruges

is

breathtakingly

beautiful

intertwined

by canals,

fascinating architecture

with an

incredibly

rich

history

dating back

over

2000 years

...

according

to

my husband

and best friend,

John,

Belgium

has

4 main food groups:

1. Mussels

2. chocolate

3. beer

4. Waffles

You can survive on these delicious foods-

probably

forever!

A short

time ago,

Isabel,

joined

our

Petit Soleil family

Her mom,

Inge,

is

Flemmish

(from a small town called

Vosselaar)

and

Isabel

makes

real

Belgium

WAFFLES!

She

made them

today

at

Petit!

with a sprinkle of powdered sugar

and

a dollop of

whipped creme

the guests

raved

about

Isabel's Belgium Waffles

my bff

loved them

as

did

Ashley

me, too

delicious!

Here

is the recipe

that

Inge

passed on to

Isabel
