TeriAnne had surgery on her knee so I'm taking dinner to her family.
Being the working Mom I am, it's hard to fix a good dinner when I'm at the office all day, so when I ran across this yummy mashed potatoes recipe I was so excited.

Tonight's question:

How often do you talk to your parents?

A:  Almost daily.  My Dad has nothing to do all day but sit in his garden and whistle, so he gets out his cell phone (he can't hear either) and he proceeds to hit speed dial and call me at work.
Some days it drives me crazy (I'm not gonna lie)~but one day I'm going to miss those annoying phone calls, so for now, I think I'll try to appreciate them a little more.

and coming tomorrow..........
WHAT'S FOR DINNER WEDNESDAY?

Have you figured out the new blogger yet? 

No wonder no one blogs any more....

it's too confusing!

What happened to "minima" template?

Don't know what happened to my old template~

guess my blog will never look like it used to....

guess I'd better adjust because I don't think it's going to get any better.

It's difficult for this old grandma to keep up with technology,

what is this world coming to?

On a happy note.....

Sassy is back!
