Stuffed Sweet Potatoes

Apparently one of the fitness instructors at the gym was seriously injured in a car accident last week when it snowed. She's a mother of young children too. I don't know her because she teaches an early morning class.

I made some stuffed sweet potatoes yesterday based on this recipe. It didn't take more than an hour to bake at 350F. I used chives instead of green onions. It was nutritious and delicious.

Kristi Yamaguchi 2 decades since gold - so inspiring!

For 12-year old astrophysics prodigy, the sky’s the limit:

But his parents encouraged his interests from the start. Once, they took him to the planetarium at Butler University. "We were in the crowd, just sitting, listening to this guy ask the crowd if anyone knew why the moons going around Mars were potato-shaped and not round," Jake's mother, Kristine Barnett, told the Star. "Jacob raised his hand and said, 'Excuse me, but what are the sizes of the moons around Mars?' "

After the lecturer answered, said Kristine, "Jacob looked at him and said the gravity of the planet ... is so large that (the moon's) gravity would not be able to pull it into a round shape."

"That entire building ... everyone was just looking at him, like, 'Who is this 3-year-old?'"
