To take my mind off my pain, I made my family's favorite meatloaf and tried a new potato recipe. It is called "Au Gratin Potatoes". From the "ooohhs" and "ahhs" I heard from the dinner table, I take it they are very good. My daughter even asked for seconds, which is not usual for her.

Yummy, those potatoes are one of my favorites.
I hate the dentist-I hope the pain is better. The food looks amazing.
Thanks;)
I am feeling better tonight
I love gratin potatoes. It's been too long since I've made them - I'd better do something about that soon.
Your dentist post was horrific. I hope the pain and the memories are fading. Got a feeling the memories might take a little longer.
Which reminds me... Patience! What wound would ever heal but by degrees. (Don't hit me!)
