Waffles with Peaches and Creme

I have a new gadget that I snuck onboard the boat this weekend. Not exactly sure where I’m going to stow it but I’ll be sure to keep it out of sight of the captain. It meets 3 out of 4 of the “NOT for a Sailboat” criteria: it’s heavy, it’s single use and it…

Quickie Quiche

Ready, set, …GO! We’re going to make this quiche as fast as you would round the first mark of the Wednesday Night Races! A quiche SO EASY you can add pretty much anything you have in your icebox.
