How to make your sweetheart a perfectly declicious Valentines Breakfast.

If you know me then you know that I am well known for being fashionably late-sometimes. (Okay fine maybe all the time.) I have to stay true to my reputation so here is a post for Valentines Day just one day late, but its perfect preparation for next year. You can never start  preparing too early. Another thing about me is I am absolutely in love with food.Valentines Day is all about love so why not give the person you love something that you both like? Speaking for most human beings on the face of this planet I would say that we share a common love-food. One of my favorite meals of the day is breakfast. I also adore waffles, so I decided to combine the two and create a delicious breakfast perfect for Valentines day. (pretty much perfect for any day)

LETS GET STARTED-

  • First off  you need a Valentine.  If you're forever alone? Don't worry because making something scrumptious for yourself is totally okay.
