No… I have not resorted to calling my readers mean names… BRAT is the diet that Abigail is on today. After she downed her morning bottle, she promptly “upped” it, or vomited it, all over our living room carpet, and me. She’s also been a little “loose in the diaper,” if you know what I [...]

I’ve chosen to spotlight the hand soap that we use at our house… Kiss My Face Moisture Soap, GermsAside Tea Tree.
I love this product because it is naturally anti-bacterial. With a small child, and flu season, washing hands is the #1 way to prevent sickness. According to the AMA and other organizations, commercial antibacterial soaps [...]

Just a quick note on my recipes… I try to cook gluten free, or at least wheat free, most of the time… so most of my recipes will reflect that. I also try to use whole dairy products as much as possible.
