See, I love and admire party moms who can make magic happen from a Pinterest picture and just delight the crap out of kids! I don't have the imagination for it and I'm always in awe of the moms who bring this kind of thing to school or play dates.

We have the other side of that where people ask (usually the husband) if we were going to try again for a boy and he bark laughs NO. not necessarily because we are against having a boy but because the shop is CLOSED.

Heinz is good for widely available. Every time I visit Houston I pick up Whataburger spicy and regular ketchup at HEB though.

I just handed her wee free men and the back of the book mentioned a young girl armed with a frying pan. And she asked if Tangled was based on this

Really giving her any book other than HP as her first "big" book did a lot to innoculate her from the allure. She read sorcerer's stone finally because her cousin liked it and was like meh

Between this and that mom's bao recipe basically a steamed brioche, I really have to re-evaluate everything I know as a baseline for certain foods

I still cannot understand how these mothers who need extra help to read small text or lose their glasses/phone can still see the grease mark where a kid dropped a muffin from twenty feet away

I dunno, I'm just glad shes open to more flavors. We just did bread with herbs and olive oil today and it was a big step because ~~green specks~~

The way we innoculated our kid against HP was giving them any other series to read to set as a quality baseline. She finally read the first one at the urging of her friends and was very "idgi" about it.
