There's a good ole tradition at CLIF known as Waffle Wednesday. It's often a spur-of-the-moment surprise that you don't know about until you smell the waffle goodness when you walk in the building. It can really turn a grey sky blue.
We haven't had one yet in 2009 so Abbs & I decided to ask our pals Matt & Pat, Waffle Iron Chefs and Creative Directours of Waffle Wednesdays if they would do one on behalf of our climb. Through a brief negotiation period which entailed Mexican Hot Chocolate on the day of the event and beers at the local Albatross at a TBD date in the very near future, they agreed.
Our fellow co-workers graciously scarfed (yes...you can scarf AND be gracious at the same time!) up the waffles with toppings varying from chocolate chips to Sriracha hot sauce and donated some $$. These greenbacks officially kick off my fundraising campaign so I'm thankfully no longer at zero and gave a nice bump to Abbs' total, too.
Thanks Pat & Matt (and the trusty cow waffle maker!)
