This Mompreneur Sunday started off with sleeping in. When I woke up, there was coffee made for me by my wonderful fiance, which sets just the right tone. The guys were already full on with the football when I got up today (when does the pre-game stuff start anyway... the crack of dawn?), so I prepped the kitchen and made blueberry waffles to die for. These are scrumptious, and so easy. Use one box of Jiffy Blueberry Muffin Mix, and 1 cup of Bisquick, one egg, a little oil and about 1 1/2 cups of milk. While I have the waffles cranking out of the waffle iron, I start making my warm blueberry compote. I pour half a bag of frozen blueberries, about 5 tablespoons of sugar, and about 2 tablespoons of cornstarch that has been whisked into approximately 2 cups of water, and mix it all together into a pyrex bowl. I microwave on high about a minute at a time, until the mixture starts to boil. Then, I take it out, crush down the blueberries a bit to help get the juice into the mixture, and continue to microwave until it starts to thicken. By then, all the waffles are made, and everyone can build their plates.
Of course, I have to make sure at least one person is getting some work done...My assistant ate so much this morning, her little belly was tight as a drum. After breakfast, she was a sticky blueberry mess, so she got to have a very splashy Sunday morning bath. Between the excitement of football, a full tummy and a complete water aerobic work-out, she was ready to conk out right about the time the Raiders won. Amazing, two miracles at once!
