What the HECK is a Wabanunini????

WABANUNINI- \wə-bə-noo-nee-nee\- a decadent, indulgent, and satisfying concoction consisting of bananas and nutella, sandwiched between two waffles, and grilled in butter until golden brown and crispy. Wabanunini are often eaten for breakfast, though they can be enjoyed any time of the day. Particularly useful for relieving melancholy, anguish, and even mild depression, wabanunini have been proven to restore joy to those who had long ago abandoned hope. One should not be alarmed if, upon eating a wabanunini, they begin to experience a slight tingling sensation or a paralysis of the face; this is a smile and it will go away after 2-3 hours. Beware, however, that exuberance and a sense of euphoria may last for as long as one day. The drug-like effects of wabanunini are far-reaching and may even result in a non-severe case of dependence, which should not be referred to as "addiction", even though that is precisely what it is. The proper way to eat a wabanunini is to delicately savor each bite, whilst in the company of friends. If, however, you are caught devouring one at 3 am in the morning, alone in a dark kitchen, you may plead the "enslaved to Nutella" clause, which should relieve you of any blame; you will be exonerated on all charges and your good name will be restored.

In just 3 easy steps, you too, can enjoy a wabanunini. First, take 2 waffles (I used whole grain) and slather the inside of each of them with Nutella. Next, slice a banana and put in between the waffles (nutella side towards the banana). Finally, butter the outside of the waffles with room temperature butter and cook in a hot skillet (or panini press) until golden brown on each side.

Make sure you enjoy with an ice cold glass of skim milk or a piping hot cup of coffee. Also....don't eat before going to any type of event in which you are expected to appear somber, such as a funeral or an expose on world hunger.
