Our week has started with this
Due to a freak hide and seek accident my daughter, and number one right hand gal is now my left hand gal. Her right arm is in a splint and sling until we visit the orthopedic clinic later this week to determine if it is broken. (This is not an actual picture of my daughter, she is pretty banged up so I didn’t want to put that picture all over the internet.)
This unfortunate incident overshadowed the happiness I felt when my husband brought this home from a recent trip.

Yes, the Happy family is very competitive, lol! Seriously, if I told you how she did it you wouldn’t believe me, it is that weird, but let’s just say it involved a boat and cement.

Oh my, I am so sorry about your daughter’s arm. My son recently broke his on our church playground. He is in kindergarten, and through this tragedy we learned that he writes much better with his left hand than his right. Interesting!
Your menu sounds great. Whole wheat pizza is delicious!!!

Just read about your daughter’s arm. My daughter hurt her hand last week. The one she writes with. Pretty sure it was broken. After a week in a temporary cast, we saw the ortho dr. this morning and the the hand is fine. It will be stiff for a bit but nothing is broken. Thank ya Jesus! Gotta love miracles both big and small!

How cool to have a Belgian waffle maker!

So sorry about your daughter—hope she heals soon.
That potato soup recipe looks awesome! (You could probably feed it to children and they’d never know there were other veggies in it, would they?)

I have the same waffle maker. Love it! We have waffles at least once a week.
(Just a heads up – the manufacturer had some trouble with bad heating elements last year in the waffle makers with the fixed handle. There’s a manufacturer’s warranty – I sent them the old one and they mailed a new one out within the week.)

Congrats on the waffle maker. I also love waffles!
Looks like your family is going to have some terrific meals this week.
I love MPM especially since my husband and I lost our jobs. I’m looking for inexpensive and healthy meals for our family of three.
Well, gotta get back to the laundry and Dr. Laura.
