team waffle | a tag

  1. thank/link the person who tagged you.
  2. answer the questions.
  3. tag 5 people.
  4. include your favorite waffle/pancake recipe. (optional!)
shout out to rachel for starting a full out war underneath my simple tweet of "I want waffles". head on over to her blog for a little run down of how this all actually got started. also thanks to dslfkj lskdfjdlkjf lskdfjldsk slkdfj for tagging me. ^-^
 
 
// ideal pancake or waffle in three words //
 light and not pancake. just kidding. i'd like to clarify that i eat both, but waffles are so blatantly superior in my mind that i had to participate. i have yet to eat a pancake that doesn't leave me feeling gross afterwards. < my life is basically a tragedy. or a tragicomedy because in the end i get waffles.
 
// if you could eat pancakes or waffles with anyone in the world, living or dead, fictional or real, who would it be // 
either c. s. lewis or julie andrews. tough stuff. refusing to let myself think about fictional characters because i won't be able to constrain myself. although i feel like dumbledore could really appreciate a good waffle.

// top three condiments to put on your pancakes or waffles //
wow. these are too difficult for me. recently was introduced to the idea of cream cheese on waffles (this basically like combining bagels and waffles and i almost started crying. my two favorite entities in the universe combined. wow.) and that was good. also cool whip and any berry. i've also heard fried chicken ??? on the bucket list to try.
 
// why pancakes or waffles are better than the other option //
*prepares master thesis presentation* waffles have special boxes to store syrup, butter, cream cheese, berries, etc. it basically makes you feel like you have an organized life. they are infinitely more aesthetically pleasing. you can hold them to eat on the go. much more difficult with pancakes. at least for me my waffle maker divides them up into quarters so if you don't want much then you can just take half or a quarter, or if you want more but are unwilling to commit to eating a whole one, you can just take a little bit. or take four different quarters and use different toppings for each. also their name is a WAFFLE. like are you kidding me just think about how great that word is. it just makes you want to eat one. 

// if you could make your pancakes or waffles into any shape or size how would you choose // 
a hand making a peace sign. who even knows why. oh or sunglasses. i would feel so cool.

    YES wouldn't waffles with Julie Andrews just be the coolest thing ever? And I totally agree with you- I'm positive that Dumbledore would appreciate a good waffle. Like, I'd love to talk with the guy over waffles. #lifegoals

    ohmygoodness, they are so good. Even the chips flavored as chicken and waffles is stellar. I can't even right now. I would almost go #teamwaffle just because of chicken and Belgian waffles. Like, that good.

    1. thank you for conceding to my point. I'm very impressed by your diplomacy and lack of bias.
      ASLFKJDSLFJKMD./ wow. that means I 100000% need to try it. ok it is now switched to top priority on my bucket list (which is actually non existent so it's literally the only goal in my life rn)

      Delete
    2. Your humor is my favorite thing like ever ok.
      Yes, I take pride in my diplomacy and lack of bias.
      RIGHT LIKE IF SOMEONE FROM #TEAMPANCAKE CONSIDERS CONVERTING JUST BECAUSE OF CHICKEN AND WAFFLES THAT MEANS YOU NEED TO TRY IT.

      haha I feel that non-existent bucket list cause I have one too

  6. Sorry but I'm Team Bagel all the way... this tag/war is cracking me up since I literally hard ever eat pancakes OR waffles, sad to say. I could go for a waffle because those are extra elusive around here.

  9. Oh wow, now I NEED to try fried chicken with waffles. It sounds interesting, but I can see how it would be sorta good. Hm.
    #TEAMWAFFLE is winning! The reasons you said are so true, and I loved the last one. WAFFLE. Even the word is pleasing to the ear. haha. But it is a nice word. Compared to pancake. PAN CAKE. cake in a pan? Hey, I'm all for cake, but not quite like that. xD But they're both good in their own way i suppose.
    Awesome post <3 (AND GORGEOUS PHOTO)

    1. I FEEL THE SAME WAY. like, at first I was like, what????? but now I'm like.... hmh. sounds nice.
      WE SO ARE. SO MUCH SUPPORT. you are so right. what even is a pan cake. not appealing is what it is. true, though. they both have their own strengths and weaknesses ;) THANK YOU AUTUMN. JUST TRYING TO COPY YOURS, TBH.

  11. NONONO

    I was waiting in desperate fear that someone would tag me because I just //can't// decide!!! I adore both in equal measure. (although funnily enough, my stomach hurts after pancakes, too. which is a tragedy.)

  14. um... so breakfast food kinda (REALLY) rocks.

    Waffles are so incredible! We made this new recipe a few days ago and they are the fluffiest, crispiest, flavorfulest waffles EVER! I might just have to go and do my own breakfast food post, because waffles bring people together! (Unless they are on #TeamPancake, and in that case, they divide.)

    I've actually never tried cream cheese on a waffle. I'm more of a maple syrup, whipped cream, and berry kind of gal. But I appreciate a chocolate chip waffle with peanut butter (I can put peanut butter on anything).

  16. I still love how your one innocent little tweet turned intO THIS WHOLE THING. THIS ENTIRE DEBATE. THIS TAG. IT'S LIKE YOU CREATED AN ALTERNATE UNIVERSE, OLIVIA. HOW DOES THIS FEEL?? Daaang.

    Ok ok pancakes are deff more like...heavier?? I do love them but they're more like eating a lot of dough, whereas a waffle is like, way less dense. Idk, they're just their own thing. AND THE SQUARES ARE SO ORGANIZED, YES. Like, that gives me a glimpse of what organization feels like and I'm over here like *heart eye emoji*

    ok ok ima need to do this. XD

    AND LITERALLY the recipe that Abbie uses is like... o_o amaze. OH and I also have a friend who told me you can take a glazed doughnut and grill it in a waffle iron, and it's a doughnut waffle. Never tried this, but its been on the list.
