  2. My youngest daughter had a severe eating disorder
    that had us in and out of hospitals and doctors appointments for 2 years…our lives were turned upside down trying to work,support her thru this terrible illness, and be there for our other daughter! Now, they will both be in college this year…letting go of the youngest after all we have been thru, hoping she can make it on her own……..been crying for weeks…HATE the thought of being an empty nester…..!

  3. Sounds divine. i just got a 3 pound bag of new red potatoes at Aldi’s for 99 cents as a one of their special buys. in fact I got 2 for that price and put them in the fridge crisper drawer with paper towels between the layers. That’s a trick my mom taught me years ago and it sure does make them last longer
