busy month

October has been a busy month at our house. Jacob and Pat have been to the dentist.
Jacob and Pat have been to the eye doctor- both for new glasses- both with RX changes.JT and Pat have both been to 2 doctors each for various stuff. Marisa has had her car at the repair hospital and it was released today- just like new. Next month will be "pay for it all month" ..................by the way I was tired of chocolate gravy looking at me so I had to come up with something to replace it.....sorry.

Chocolate Gravy and Biscuits

One of the traditions from JT's family is Chocolate gravy and biscuits. When we were visiting @ his family's, that was one of the treats that was a frequent breakfast for us. Well, today both kids (and grandpups) were home for the Columbus day holiday and guess what I made? My last attempt (5 years ago) was a flop, so I had feared repeating it....but turned out really right today.



(made too much tho......anybody want to come over???)
