bento bako 1.9
I think I am liking this preschool thing. I get to drink a lot more coffee AND I have time to blog now! Blogging makes my blog happy, it’s been so neglected lately. Once a week M goes to school 30 min early to eat lunch with the other kids. Here’s her food for last [...]

green monsters
I’ve been drinking spinach! I got a few bags of pre-washed baby spinach from Trader Joe’s, some apples, almond milk, and some other various fruits like plums, blackberries, and fresh pineapple. There is more info here at Oh She Glows. I’ve also been 5 days without dairy! Yay. If I can kick my daily milk [...]

FFTY
We get a box like this delivered to our door every Wednesday from Farm Fresh To You, an organic farm in Capay, California. It has taken me a few months of trial and error to see which box works for us, but I finally decided on the small box ($21.50) to be delivered every week. [...]

apples
The above picture is one of the main reasons I don’t bake much anymore. I really have no concept of portion size or knowing when to stop. I think something inside of me is broken so I’m trying to mend it. It’s a great big WIP with really no finishing date. So one apple cobbler [...]

M’s second trip to the dentist. No cavities! As you can see she was very brave and even gave me a fake smile. She has an appointment in July for a cleaning…how do you get a 4 yr old to be still for a dental cleaning?? They don’t have t.v.s or anything fancy like that. [...]

teff
I have decided to branch out and try some different whole grains. I always buy the same things over and over–brown rice, oats, oat bran, and cous cous. It is kind of silly how I never ever deviate from those same grains! I thought I would share some of my shopping experiences with you all. [...]

OMG–silence
Quick, I gotta do these posts while everyone is sleeping! I love it when my toddler takes a nap during the day (she usually doesn’t).
It is physically impossible for me to walk out of a JoAnns and not buy something, so I picked up a pattern and some vinyl remnants. I have vague intentions [...]

placenta
After getting the placenta home safely, I started the dehydration process. I ordered a kit here and it was great to have everything I needed, including the capsule making machine. I won’t write out the directions because that would ruin things for the people who make the kits, but here are some pictures. You can [...]
