Today was sunny and almost warm with a slight breeze. We went to visit a friend and found to the 4-year-old's delight, she had a morning of kite-flying planned for us. Josiah ran off his energy all around the yard, dragging a kite behind him that usually stayed up in the air and out of the trees.
Then we headed inside, where the warmth still felt good after being out in the spring breeze. Our friend turned on her waffle iron and shared these cookies with me. Since Josiah couldn't have them, I asked for the recipe, brought it home, and revamped the ingredients so all three kids could enjoy. (Josiah gets his with carob chips.) Not needing gluten free? Use regular flour and oatmeal, leave out the xanthan gum, and you can make it just like our friend did!
