Christmas Breakfast

This little breakfast has a few little stories behind it....  First, we had a nice waffle maker that got lost in one of the moves.  Every Sunday we have breakfast for dinner and haven't been able to have waffles for a few years.  Riley got me a Williams Sonoma waffle maker for Christmas, but I ruined the surprise and figured it out a while ago, still very excited to get it and use it nonetheless.   So I was very happy to make a special waffle breakfast.  The waffle maker worked great, the waffle mix was yummy and didn't need the last 3 eggs I had that I needed for the yummy pumpkin dessert I wanted to make, so I could still make the dessert, and we had plenty of syrup.  Sometimes we run low and Riley gets nervous.  But.....
..as we were eating, Elli pulled several glass chunks out of her mouth from her waffle.  I had given her the last waffle from the iron, trying to be nice by giving her a fresh, crispy waffle.  Well, as we were moving about 2 weeks ago, I was making trips back and forth from house to house and heard some glass fall on the floor as I was moving the kitchen stuff.  I have my glass, pyrex mixing bowls stacked together and I guess one chipped and the glass fell in the biggest bowl.  As I scraped the batter from the bowl for the last waffle, I must have scraped up the glass.  Hopefully she didn't eat any chunks.  Oopps!  We did have the leftover waffles the next morning and no one has had any glass in theirs.
