I just got back from my trip... I made waffles in the room with a small waffle iron. It was super easy... .I was able to measure the dry batter (I think it was Aunt Jamima) and water in the inroom coffee pot... I then poured it in a ziplock bag to mix (I just squezzed the bag till it was mixed). I had syrup and squezz margerine and it was great. I picked up the waffle iron at Wal-mart for 5 bucks... we liked it so well I brought it home to bring on the next trip.
