What if you aimed it so the cheese toast flew into a waffle iron, thereby killing the fleas and adding extra protein and trace nutrients to your snack?

Ssometimes I see waffle irons sold with swappable moulds, so that you can use them to make things other than waffles. You can grill meat, make poffertjes and toasties, which is cheese between two slices of bread. Add tomato sauce, meat, and some onion and pretend it's a pizza.

I believe the idea is that fleas find hosts by detecting the heat and CO2 mammals (and candles) give off. I have no idea if that's actually accurate.

Yes. But it is still a terrible life hack. I've done it by putting the candle in the middle of a shallow pan of soapy water to increase the catch radius before. It works. There are also electric flea traps that use a small amount of heat to attract fleas to sticky flypaper.

But you can't actually use it to control fleas, only to detect them. Caught a flea? You have fleas, so something about it. Caught 5 fleas? You have a heavy infestation and really ought to do something about that right away. Just a candle alone wouldn't catch much, plus it would be hard to see the tiny charred corpses in the candle, so it wouldn't even work very well as a detector. To use it to actually control fleas you'd need dozens of them all over your house, burning 24/7 for weeks or months.

When I was looking into getting a waffle iron, I went with something like this because I figured since I was spending the money on a new kitchen appliance, I better be getting enough usage out of it to justify the money I was shelling out. So far I've done knockoff hot pockets, panini, and waffles with it.

I used to work for an electrician that did Department of Housing stuff and we had to replace a LOT of ovens that people had just opened the door and used as a heater. Also quite a few where people had used the oven doors as step ladders, oddly enough.

All the waffle iron hate inspired me...

... inspired me to buy a waffle iron.



The first thing I made was a blueberry waffle. I used a cheap blueberry muffin mix, and thinned out the batter a bit. It was tasty as heck, and I enjoyed it. Sadly, I did not take pictures. I did, however, grab some pictures of the omelette I made, this morning.

Let's start with the basics: a couple of eggs and some pepper.



Looking good, but we need to jazz it up a little. Do you like tomatoes? I like tomatoes.



Hmm... still needs work. What else do we have in the fridge?

Ooooh, ham. I can get behind that.



Almost there, but I feel like there's still room in this recipe. Ricotta! Yay! I didn't know that was in there.



Oh. That was not ricotta in that tub. Moving on.



Pouring with one hand while photographing with the other did not work so well. No problem, I spread the tomatoham around a bit and closed the lid. I didn't fill the cavities evenly, but my stomach won't care.

Here it is, plated with some cornbread I also made in the waffle iron because hell yeah, that's why.



The eggs lost some of their nice, fluffy shape while I was fiddling with my phone. Oh, well, they tasted great.


Bonus Christmas spirit picture I took while grabbing the waffle iron:

All a waffle iron does is apply heat and pressure, which is how diamonds are made.

Is there anyone dumb enough to believe that "blood diamonds" are literally made out of blood, and if you extract enough of your blood and put it in a waffle iron long enough you'll have diamonds you can sell and live like a king off the proceeds?

Who are those guys? The two less-fat ones look really familiar. There's something about the middling-fat one who seems to take the reviews seriously that drives me crazy. I think it's something about his speech patterns. I really wanted to punch him for a couple of episodes. Are they film-industry guys or something? I heard one make a reference to Dutch angles, and someone in one of the videos said, "Gaffers don't get laid."

Anyway, those videos were fun. Thanks for the link.
