I think I'm deleting a few things... we've been dealing with a severe migraine here (DH). :( Hoping we don't end up at the hospital this afternoon. :( :( :(

No hospital, B"H! And tonight will just be me and the kids, so we're just having simanim, challah, lamb, potatoes, carrots/beets, and honey cake.
