How to Feed a Real Food Baby

October 20th, 2011 · 50 Comments · Kids in the Kitchen, Natural Health, What to Buy

Let’s start with a confession today: I’ve never fed a real food baby once solids have been introduced. All of our babies began life with the perfect food: mother’s milk.

Eat Well, Spend Less: Back to School with Food Allergies

August 23rd, 2011 · 52 Comments · Frugality, Recipes

It takes me half an hour to pack food any time we have to eat away from home. Half an hour. Minimum. Lunch for one adult and two small children, I’m sure, should not take that long. And starting in just two short weeks, I’ll be packing a lunch every day for my new first [...]
