Hi there Carol, I think you can grill waffles as well, I know what you mean though about them not being made for the micro wave. You better put some suntan lotion on seeing that your kitchen is sunny and hot, don't want you burnt. smiles. Its not that sunny here, went to sit out for a while and when I found there was hardly no sun, came in. Oh, that's torture putting a empty box of chocolates in front of me to sniff. smiles. Will get my choc fix later. Take care. Senn.
