Paul and the Children gave me an early Christmas Present. They purged, Sanitized, Painted, and Papered my Pantry. We are living in my mother in Laws Home and found things in that pantry that were thirty years old!
It will make me happy every day to store food in our Pantry!

This presentation really wowed me. Especially the graphic at the three and a half minute mark on Maternal Mortality.

What if something is deeply wrong with our childbirth system?
Highly-trained specialists working in well-equipped hospitals manage most births. Seen this way, one might assume that our system is safe, evidence-based, and effective. One might explain the high cost as a necessary trade-off for quality service while complications, injuries, and deaths might be explained as unavoidable.
But what if overwhelming evidence shows that we’re living with a system that isn’t very good at all, on average?
The U.S. birth care system has saddled millions of women with expensive over-treatment, unnecessary complications, and avoidable risks.
When expecting a baby for the first time, there is so much for a couple to think about besides critically examining the birth system they are about to traverse. Let us not leave them alone facing a broken system.
Join us in this exploration of what’s gone wrong with birth in the U.S, the impact on mothers and babies, and how we can unbreak birth.
There is also a panel discussion where mothers and birth care providers share their perspectives:

I saw this photo on Facebook this morning and thought, SUPPER! Our family has had years of Vegetarian and even Vegan eating, but during the winter, especially when it is bitter cold, the Tofu Pot Pie just doesn’t pack the protein and calorie punch that a good old fashioned meat and potatoes supper does. This recipe was easy to recreate, I did not even go read it on Pinterest, just saw the picture and went HMmmmm… and here is what I came up with:
Recipe
2 lbs Ground organic beef
2 large purple onions
3 cloves freshly chopped garlic
6 Eggs
1 slice of fresh baked Kamut and Flax seed bread crumbled into breadcrumbs (I did a fresh baking of bread this morning and used a slice for the Meatloaf, but you can use any breadcrumbs)
1 Stick butter
Salt n Pepper to taste
1 tsp dried oregano
1 tsp parsley
On low heat saute onions and garlic in butter.
Add Seasonings and let cool while grating in the bread.
Add in eggs and meat. (Temper the eggs in if the onions are still really hot)
Mix well and spoon into greased muffin pan.
Bake at 375 for an hour on top of a cookie sheet to catch the drippings.
I used some old organic potatoes that were going to seed for the mashed potato filling.
Shelly and Ben peeled and chopped them up and I boiled them in water with a teaspoon of salt. Paul mashed them up with salt and pepper and a half cup of whipping cream. Then I added in some parsley before dropping the potato into the pastry bag. The meatloaf crust was a little tough to smash the filling into, but it worked to have a little bit of it in the middle of each loaf.
Normally when I try to recreate a Pinterest recipe I have to title the post Pinterest fail, but this was by far the best Meatloaf I have ever made. I have only made it about four times during my whole marriage, and mostly it was terrible, but this was YUMMY!
I broiled the tops of the loafs for about five minutes just to reheat and brown them up right before serving. We all really enjoyed this meal.
