Easter dinner? 
We are having a big problem getting our food stamps aka link card. I am the only one working. I only make minimum wage. I cannot afford to grocery shop,we go to food pantries. I was hoping that we could have a nice easter dinner with all the trimmings,ham or turkey,mashed potatoes,gravy,rolls etc... But DHS screwed up and we don't have the link card yet!!! I am so sad!!!! I feel bad that I cannot provide a nice dinner for my family! I work my ass off and it still is not enough!!! I work at 2 different restaurants one is 30 hours a week the other is 20!!!!! I do not know what else to do!!!!!
