‘Waffle’ the noun and ‘waffle’ the verb are not etymologically related.
The noun is related to the Old English ‘wefan,’ which means “to weave.”
The verb is related to the English ‘woff,’ which means “to yelp.”
FWIW: we never waffle on eating waffles.

Georgia O’Keeffe often took "motor outings," as she called them, packing her gear in her Ford and camping for several days.
In this photograph, O’Keeffe eats breakfast in the Bisti De-Na-Zin wilderness in the Navajo Nation, about 150 miles away from her home in Ghost Ranch.
