Since it was take your child to work day today my mom let me take over the camera and blog to do whatever I felt like doing. So I thought I would give all of my mom’s followers a list of something that they could do tomorrow. And yes, I will be doing this again. [...]
What’s for dinner?
**Update: The winner of the cookbook is comment #23–my friend, Safire! Congrats!** What’s for dinner, you ask? I hear MamaKat is starving. Frankly, so am I.

I’ve Already Lost All My Dignity.
