    What better way to bring in the new year than with waffles made right - crispy, not soggy. Feel free to add what you normally add to waffles, but follow the instructions for substituting 1/4 of the flour for cornstarch and whipping the egg white.

    Light, Crisp Waffles

    3/4 c. all-purp flour
    1/4 c. cornstarch
    1/2 tsp salt
    1/2 tsp baking powder
    1/4 tsp baking soda
    3/4 c. buttermilk
    1/4 c. milk
    6 Tbsp (1/3 cup) oil
    1/4 cup "Egg Beaters Egg Whites" or 2 egg whites
    1 Tbsp sugar
    1/2 tsp vanilla

    Heat oven to 200 degrees

    Beat egg whites with an electric mixer until almost soft peaks. Sprinkle in sugar and continue to beat until white and glossy. Beat in vanilla extract. Transfer egg whites to another bowl.

    In the bowl combine flour, cornstarch, salt, baking powder, making soda, buttermilk, milk, and oil. Mix on lowest setting until mixed. Mix in the whipped egg whites on lowest setting.

    Optional: stir in one tbsp ground cayenne pepper for added kick

    Bake in waffle baker as directed in instructions. Place in oven until ready to serve. Serve with 100% maple syrup - avoid unhealthy corn syrup based commercial knock-offs.

    I had to set aside Ratchet & Clank 2 for a couple weeks to give it a rest, because that game was so persistently difficult.

    Who thought it would be wise to mod up someone with the logon "irc.goatse.cx troll (http://gnaa.us/)"?
    If that wasn't obvious enough, you could have read the content to realise it was a troll:

    The only argument people have against PC gaming is all fallacy.

    • Constant need to upgrade hardware.
    • Constant need to upgrade software.
    • Hardware components must be compatible.
    • You will have to patch your game.
    • Less QA.
    • The Microsoft Tax.


    I'd much rather play tony hawk at 1024x768 with full antialiasing and all that fun stuff

    Nothing is more fun than screen resolutions and anti-aliasing! who cares about gameplay? The important thing is the screen resolution!
