Miser Family update: treasure edition

Life continues to be rich and full in the Miser Family.  The week began for me being rich in waffles; my granddaughter A-child has started learning the all-important technique of stirring batter and helping to load it into a hissing iron.  She likes the stirring, but not the hissing. 


Meanwhile, my husband and N-son began the week rich in dogs and football, visiting L-daughter, her husband and brother-in-law, all three of whom play on a local team that had a blow-out winning game that weekend.  Records set all around. 

The week continued in its full way: once he got back home, my husband got to go to several protests, to Hebrew class, to synagogue, and also an MRI appointment.  N-son served breakfast and lunch and chopped vegetables at our local soup kitchen.  I held many office hours, and then tortured my students with a calculus exam that was way too hard, and then I tortured myself by grading the exam.  Somewhere in there, we went with K-daughter and I-daughter to a rousing performance of Treasure Island, which combines motifs from our recent Pirate Dinner and the Titanic show.  I think I need to go take a nap now.

Because that's the latest from our family, which continues to be wealthy in our adventures.  May you and yours be similarly prosperous.
