Okay, I realize this probably isn't just me, but it is infuriating. My husband will do something if I am there and specifically ask him to do it, but otherwise...?   Neither of us, by any means, are tidy people by nature. I...

Oh, and I also made a veggie noodle soup with lots of garlic in it. She wasn't interested in the garlic raw, which didn't exactly surprise me. But, hey! Worth a shot, eh? She just likes to peel it. She loved the soup,...

    It is much better now! I found out that I should not use hydrogen peroxide on it (oops!) because it kills everything, including all the good bacteria. I also found out that since some amount of Staph is always...

I don't have any experience with Staph, though, so I've no idea if I should be terrified about it, or treat it as any other infected wound unless it starts looking worse.   I will take her to the doctor if there seems to be...

Yeah, that was my big worry with pasta, I don't think I can cook enough for everyone all in one pot, so how to get / keep it all warm at the right time?   I made "snobby joes" for, I think, her 1st birthday, and almost no one...

Omg, sometimes I do not know what is wrong with me. My daughter's 4th Birthday party is this weekend, and I let her invite twenty kids! She was just telling and inviting everyone to her party, and after she would invite the kids...

Actually, it's not too late at all, but perfect timing, thank you! I am working on the doll for her for Christmas, so I haven't gotten very far at all yet. I am just starting to feel that serious handmade holiday panic that I ought to...
