I ran into an old friend – me
This weekend was a weekend unlike any weekend I’d had in awhile. I saw someone I hadn’t seen in quite a long time. Me. You see, this weekend I had a chance to connect with all facets of my life.

So Over Baby Food
D.O.N.E. I am done with baby food — the purees to be specific. I don’t know why I am so eager to be over this stage but I am. Miss E. is almost ten months (ACK, almost a YEAR!) and we’ve just embarked on the next journey with food – tiny pieces of cheese, bread,… [Read More]
