Sugar MamasThere's a little takeout place not far from my house called Sugar Mamas.  Now with a name like that, you have to know there are sweets and butter involved and you wouldn't be wrong.  A few years ago I did a stint driving for Doordash and on weekends I often picked up from Sugar Mama's but I had never eaten there.  It looked really good and it smelled divine. So, this morning we ordered breakfast from there.  If you order on the Doordash app and it's your first time ordering from Sugar Mamas you can get 30% off if you pick it up.  We ordered on the app and my son, Liam, went to pick it up.We both ordered the Belgian Waffle Platter and for $13.75 it was more than I could eat. It came with 4 small waffles, sausage (or bacon), grits (or hashbrowns - I had cheese grits and Liam ha...
