Another 3/4 cup of milk and the batter was easy enough to scoop and pour into the griddle. I put in a little less than optimal on one side, and yet it was rather good. And the beeps are difficult to hear. Still, they came out quite well. A little practice and this thing will work just fine. I will probably only have waffles a few times a month, but it is a very nice add. I would like, in time, to learn to make pancakes, but that will wait. One thing at a time. With eggs, waffles, yogurts of several sorts, dry grain cereals to add to yogurt, I have a variety for breakfasts. If I can figure out omelets, then pancakes, I'll be pretty set. Add in hot cereals, real whole type grain stuff, for cold weather, and I may start eating a regular meal in the morning. Yes, it does help. Slow burn stuff, that lasts, is the way to go. So, probably next thing, I need to work up some whole grain type recipes for the waffle iron. Not so much whole wheat, but other grains.
Of course, four waffles is seeing me to being stuffed. I'll have to edge my way past that. Then again, two large "cups" of milk played their part. I'll have to sit for a good half hour to hour before I can mess with much. Boxes, first, I believe. Then laundry if that took it out of me. Then sweeping. I don't know if I will get much past that before it is time to take a shower and then head to town. Life is really turning up, even with the local to time irregularities. I am making things happen, doing them, sorting, figuring, working, and playing. No where near what a normal human can do, I suppose. Certainly not even close to what I used to do. But it is much more than I would have though possible even five years ago. Trips, to home tech, to computer tech, to photography, to... all the things I used to do, if not as deeply. It's the more physical aspect of function that still needs attention. But I do have plans for even that in the works.
There is one thing that does annoy me, something I plan to begin researching. In the big bathroom, there is no real place for some things, like the plunger, cleaning materials, and such. Oh, sure, there is a shelving, both deep and thin. And there are drawers. But there is no place for the gunk of maintenance and cleaning. The places that exist will serve, just not correctly to my mind. So I am considering some type of bureau in that bathroom. The sink is on a pedestal, so there is no underneath closed area for these things. It just doesn't suit my sensibilities. Yes, yes, I can suffer through. It's just that, if I don't have to, I won't. And... I don't have to. So... I will begin looking. Something else I realize is that when I install shelving instead of cabinets in the en suite, I will have the same problem. So... I might, when I get to that, shorten the board shelves, or the lower line, so as to be able to put something as such in there. Perhaps putting a hamper on top. Not sure, but something I realize I like and would miss, so it can be a part of the planning rather than an afterthought.
I'll probably game a bit, to try to relieve that overfull sensation. Later.
