Waffles and Grits a White House Favorite, First Lady Says
Foxnews.com ^ | 2/23/09 | Lee Ross

The guests at Sunday evening's black tie White House dinner for the nation's governors feasted on servings of Chesapeake crab agnolottis, wagyu beef, Nantucket scallops and huckleberry cobbler for dessert. But thanks to First Lady Michelle Obama, a bit more of the day-to-day eating habits of the new family living at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave has been learned.

"There are some mean waffles and grits that are made in the morning that have become a regular staple for some of us," Obama said. But she didn't reveal exactly for who that breakfast pairing has become a morning favorite. Though she was quick to add that she's not the one who eats waffles every day

I may vomit! The woman who orders room service lobster and champagne at a fancy hotel eats waffles and grits? What a blatant pandering to the black electorate. Pretty soon the electorate won’t be able to afford the electricity to cook those waffles and grits.

I would think peanuts would be a favorite so that the media could fight each other over who got to pick them out of his $h!t

Yep. And who said the following?

“We are all in this together and and need to pitch in”.

It is time to overthrow teh ruling class. This is getting to look like Venezuela. Socialism, fool the stupid underclass into silly adoration by promising a handout, nationalize a free market economy, while thumping one’s chest loudly.

Predict Obama will be 20 lbs heavier in a year. Michelle will be working out with Oprah.

the WH must be getting a deal on Wagyu steak- they bask in that $100 a pound luxury item, don’t they. Is wagyu steak the new “green” favorite since they fished out all the chilly sea basses??

Most of us buying 85% lean hamburger- maybe they ought to serve it and give us some WH recipes

What a great movie. It was on yesterday. I have to go into a neighboring county today to argue a motion in front of a judge whom I’ve never met. Opposing counsel was literally born across the street from the courthouse. I was thinking about wearing cowboy boots but maybe that would be too much. I live in a suburbian county and this is a largely rural county.
