Waffle Facts:
- The waffle dates back to the Middle Ages. Since Aunt Jemima’s syrup had yet to be invented, the most common use of waffles at the time was as a coaster for a flagon of mead.
- The word “waffle” is derived from “wafer,” as in: “If you’re on your way to the breakfast hut, wafer me.”
- Popular toppings for waffles include syrup, strawberries, honey, sugar, and penguin snouts.

Found this caricature of me drawn at Busch Gardens in Tampa, Fla., many years ago. Some of it still holds up (bad facial hair, big feet, many discarded ideas).
But if it were drawn today, there would be some key changes: Not quite as skinny now as I was then, now drawing on digital tablet instead of paper, thinking of red wine instead of beer.
