Everything on a Waffle by Polly Horvath

This was a clear case of the book not living up to the quality of the cover art.  I love the picture.  The hope and wonder on her face is sweet as pie or waffles.  The story though was meandering with random off-shoots which never ended up going anywhere: She was going to learn hockey...nothing.   The old lady was having false memories...nothing.  Her parents spent a LONG time lost at sea...AND nothing.  I think the author was confused about what the book was supposed to be about so she tried many different ideas out and then only wrapped up a couple of them.
