Another post on allergy friendly baby meals (and other ideas/thoughts/notes). Here we are at 12 months… I was telling my mom recently that each day it feels like two steps forward & one step back in the eating department. [Actually I said one step forward, two steps back, but we really are moving in the positive so that’s an inaccurate portrayal of the situation] Truth be told, I bet all parents feel like this, even the ones without children with allergies. Some days he eats everything that touches his tray, other days he refuses… Read more >

Hey hey! It was a good week around these parts. I got some time to hang with girlfriends, I took P to the library and the zoo, and I even fit in several workouts. Happy dance. 🙂 Here are some photos I took throughout. Beet, carrots, apple, ginger juice + an article from my dad about the range of GI/immune responses to oats. Gluten is one tricky beast. Hilarious pose. This kid kills me. Do you have a textual relationship with your sushi provider? Guilty! I looked over and…this. Standing is now his fave. Ok,… Read more >

Going old school with the “what I ate” style blogging. For breakfast I went to Crepeville with a coworker. She was just getting off (a really crappy) night shift, so she vented to me and I listened. P spent the morning throwing things from the stroller to the ground. Whatever keeps you amused little man. I got the tofu scramble which comes with both hash browns and a bagel. The portions at Crepeville are massively massive (LOVE!!!) so I took home the leftovers for Kyle. Which is the bagel you see above. Seriously Crepeville… Read more >

I got a HUGE head of cauliflower at the farmer’s market. I think it’s going to provide enough for multiple meals – I’m thinking this soup, these “steaks”, and/or some kind of recreation of this appetizer. I didn’t get any squash while there, but found these guys amusing. I made this loaf the same way I make every other loaf and it somehow ended up all squat? It tasted the same, so I’m not sure what happened. I used a different kind of yeast (organic Rapunzel was cheaper than Red Star when I went shopping… Read more >

This weekend Kyle and I visited my G-ma in Newport Beach, went to a friend’s baby shower in Fullerton, attended a wedding in Temecula, and stayed with Kyle’s parents in San Clemente. If you do the math, that’s over 300 miles of driving (6+ hours!!!). Check out how fun this looks. Just our luck – gas prices reached $5.50 per gallon this weekend! Isn’t that fabulous? Of course record breaking fuel prices would coincide with such a jam packed weekend on the road. Anyway. Sarcasm aside, it was pretty awesome to see so many family… Read more >
