On the first night when we were out of the hospital after E was born, I was beyond exhausted. I had read about pregnancy, I had read about labor, and I had read about children. Nothing prepares you for the questions you don’t know you’ll have until you have them. Reading books about babies was … Continue reading »
I have making a quilt on my “bucket list” (posted originally here, I probably should update it actually) and have been doing bits of sewing and crafting since then. I’ve even been acquiring fabric for my imaginary someday quilt but never made the time to get started until now. On twitter, Libby, who blogs at The Allergic … Continue reading »
I think it breaks the fourth wall of blogging to comment in a post about the lack of posts on a blog but it has been almost a month since my last post so I thought I’d acknowledge that and give some updates on life with food allergies of late. Oh, and work has been … Continue reading »
Disclosure: I received 8 free mixes from Allergic Solutions, 4 to use and 4 to give away on the blog using whatever method I preferred.

I wanted to share this even though it is aimed more to folks here in Clark County, Nevada than the general internet. An e-mail from FAPE (our local Food Allergy Parent Education Group, click here for upcoming events on their website) alerted that some promising changes have been proposed (spearheaded by Food Services) to rules … Continue reading »
The lovely folks at Enjoy Life Foods sent me one of each variety of their Chewy Bars to review for the blog. The stack looks impressive but we already buy them by the case so you can guess that we love them before I get too far into this post. The four varieties are Sunbutter … Continue reading »
On Friday a friend and fellow blogger e-mailed me to see if I’d be interested in doing a television interview about Halloween and allergy safe and/or vegan friendly treats. She’d written in detail about vegan children and Halloween in the past but couldn’t do the segment herself. My first thought was that I had never … Continue reading »
I received a most welcome e-mail a few weeks ago from one of my favorite companies, Enjoy Life Foods, offering some products for review on the blog. I had to say yes, even though I already knew I loved all four varieties of Crunchy Cookies, having previously purchased them when grape products became okay for … Continue reading »
