I'm glad you found me in my new space! What do you think? Moving my blog from blogger to wordpress was more difficult than I imagined, but only because I'm not all that technically savvy. Once I figured it out, I realized the process was quite simple. If only it hadn't taken me hours to figure ...
Kid Friendly Recipes
Toddler Tuesday: I’m in Love
As far as almost-2-year-olds go, I guess Meghan is exhibiting normal toddler behavior when it comes to eating. But that doesn't make it any easier. Last night for dinner, she had a variety of foods to choose from, many that at one time or another have been her ...
Toddler Tuesday: Thank Goodness for Smoothies
If there is one thing I've learned about toddlers, it's that you always have to be on your toes. Once you get comfortable and think you have things figured out, everything changes. Meghan goes through stages where she eats a lot and then stages where she hardly eats at all. Despite how much she ...
Vegetable Croquettes and Quinoa-Watermelon Salad with Citrus-Basil Vinaigrette
How's that for a mouthful of a title? Last night's dinner was just a vague idea in my mind that I kind of made up as I was going along. I started with a basic kid-friendly dish that I wanted to use--a slight variation of a vegetable croquette recipe from Super Foods for Babies and Children and ...
Toddler Tuesday: A Healthy Dessert without Sugar
Hello friends---toddler Tuesday is back! We had a fabulous weekend with my brother, sister-in-law and niece in Chicago. Now after a hectic month of traveling we have a few weeks off. This has been one busy summer, but I love it. On my mind ...
Carefree lunches
As I mentioned yesterday, we just got back from a two-week vacation. We are barely going to get unpacked before we will be back on the road again as we are heading to Chicago for the weekend. With such a short time between trips, I'm keeping lunches simple this week. Meghan started out with a ...
Hiatus Over
I took a break from my food blog for various reasons over the past months. I wasn't sure when I'd get back to it, and then something weird happened to me in the last few weeks. I've found myself thinking as if I'm blogging. It's really strange- as I'm eating or preparing a meal, I find myself ...
Toddler Tuesday: Healthy Add-Ons
Is it Tuesday again already? Yikes. We went out of town Thursday for the Easter weekend, so this blog hasn't been in the forefront of my mind. Then I remembered...Toddler Tuesday! I have to blog on Tuesday if no other day, right? ;-) Since we have been traveling, I ...
Toddler Tuesday: Spinach Nuggets with a Fun Yogurt Dipping Sauce
I was rereading part of Super Baby Food by Ruth Yaron and she lists the "Super Green Veggies" as kale, broccoli, greens, brussels sprouts, asparagus, swiss chard, okra, peas, and spinach. She suggests that babies and toddlers (and the rest of us, too, I suppose) should have at least one serving ...
Toddler Tuesday: Cheesy Broccoli, Rice, and Beans
I thought I would dedicate my Tuesday blogs to toddler food. Feeding a toddler is a challenging task as their taste memories are so short. One day Meghan will LOVE, LOVE, LOVE a certain food, and the next day act like she has never tasted something so disgusting. Since I am always looking for new ...
