Members in the Motherwell Network made some tasty homemade waffles in their cooking session this week. They shopped for the ingredients, worked as a team to mix them together to make a batter, cooked them and served with fruit and a dusting of icing sugar.

Everyone enjoyed eating them along with a cup of tea and planned some more baking and cooking sessions.
