The Flying Waffle (Children's Book Review And Giveaway)


As you know, Lil Man and I read A LOT. And we are always looking for new books. Most books that we have read have been paper or hardcover books that he can hold. But The Flying Waffle  is an electronic book that I put on my Kindle. I wasn't really sure how Lil Man would respond to that, but he loved it. He actually found it easier to 'turn the pages' than a regular book. And it didn't take him long to find his favorite page. 

This book is about Candy Carrot, Sir Cob the Corn, and Pea-Z the Sweet Pea. My son calls it the "canny cawot' book. And we have read it numerous numerous times. Since he eats a waffle most mornings, he was very familiar with waffles. And this book grabbed his attention quickly. 
It's a cute whimsical book using vegetables as main characters. As a bonus, the book also contains a waffle recipe. I felt that it was just the right length to keep my son's attention, but long enough to actually tell a story. I find that with a lot of children's books that they don't really say anything? Do you ever find that? I mean, I'll read a book to Lil Man and think, "Well that didn't make any sense at all." I didn't get that impression from this book. 

And I would like to give you a chance to win your own copy. However, please note before you enter, that the author (Tisha Agarwalhas requested that if you win the free book that you please provide her with feedback. I think that's easy enough, don't you?

2 Weeks Post Mohs Surgery

May 26, 2021 3:40pm  Finally, the phone call that I'd been waiting on. It was the Medical Center. ( Finally, we can schedule my surgery. ) She tells me who she is, and then tells me that she has a cancellation for tomorrow. ( Me stammering... )  "Ok, but I was thinking the end of June."   Then I hear "We just had a moment to look at your file. We really don't think that you should wait. We really think you should come in tomorrow at 8:15am" ( Me stammering again ) "Ok, I'll be there."  Wait, what? My mind is all over the place. I'm supposed to work. How am I going to get our son to school? Will my husband be able to go with me on such short notice. I expected this to be the end of June, not tomorrow. I'm not prepared! I was overcome with emotion.  May 26, 2021 Surgery Day I woke up at 1am with a horrible headache. By the time we arrived at the surgery center, I was definitely a bundle of nerves. I got checked in, went through the usual ...

Feel All the Feels Then Deal

Not what I expected when the phone rang. It was a routine dermatology appointment.  "Do you have any concerns?" “Yes, a small spot on my face. It comes and goes. Two weeks ago it had disappeared (again). So I'm actually glad that it’s back.”  It was the size of a pin head. It was teeny tiny. A nuisance, but not something that really seemed to bother me. “I suspect that it’s skin cancer.”  “So, we just burn if off, right?” “No, it needs to be cut out and sent to the lab.” I was not prepared for this. It’s on my lip! She’s going to cut a hole in my lip! She warns me that the shot is going to hurt and possibly a lot. She tells me this several times. (I’m thinking surely it can’t be that bad.)  I was wrong.  It hurt.  A lot.  I’m creeped out at the thoughts of her taking a chunk off of my face at the top of my lip. I’m even more creeped out as she tells me she’s going to burn it to stop the bleeding. Time and time again I hear the sizzle and the smell is n...

It's Been a Hot Minute

It's been a hot minute since I've written anything.... over a year. Between being a mom, full time student, and a substitute teacher during a pandemic, writing hasn't been a priority. More than once,  I've felt like I was in survival mode with classes. I didn't expect early block  to be so intense.  I admit that I broke down and cried several times this semester with feeling overwhelmed. But, I endured until the end, and I got straight A's for the semester. I'm proud of myself that I didn't give up. I am enrolled in 2 summer class, and 4 fall classes and studying for standardized tests that I must pass before I can begin my student internship.  I will be close to 50 when I graduate. Am I too old to do this? Who starts a career at 50????? I guess I do. I don't know what's going to happen when I graduate. I do know that I am enjoying the course work, and I'm enjoying being able to put what I have learned into practice as a substitute.  This sch...
