BOOZE (for the adults)! We eat candy, and a ton of it. This happens one day a year, so we go all out, and I am pretty sure Ellie has eaten her body weight in candy! Obviously, she (and the rest of us) was a mess the day after. Which means, it is time now time for a huge ...

It's making me all kinds of sad! A fall and winter without ...

Two for one if you have a baby and a toddler - a win-win! Sometimes the name of the game is - how many vegetables can I possibly add to my toddlers diet before she stops eating altogether. This usually stems from the fear that my toddler is going to turn into a giant banana, blueberry or gummy chews (damn you Costco for selling Amy's Organic Gummy chews, in bulk!) from how many she consumes on a daily basis. Sometimes the name of the game is - how can I use all of this left over produce that is hanging on for dear life in the back of my fridge because even though I had good intentions and went to the store on the weekend with my meal plan in hand, ...
