My parents are so picky. My mom cooks/bakes from scratch, but they just don’t eat a wide variety of things at all. My husband grew up in a family that couldn’t really cook. We eat everything and so does our toddler (currently at least). But my parents come for holidays and always complain that I won’t just cook…

We just went to a place while in Texas that was amazing for our toddler. One of the kids meals options was a “small bites plate” and you could pick 3 things from a list of like: chicken, avocado, tomatoes, dried figs, cheeses, biscuits, broccoli, mac and cheese, etc. And it all came out on a plate cut small enough but…

Just bring my toddler’s plate out first (or at least not last) please. It’s going to be too hot for her and I’ll have to cut it up some. Most places are great about this. And there’s only three of us so usually the food comes all at once. But a few places have brought us our plates and then hers several minutes later…

My brother in law has Crohn’s disease and is managing his symptoms via diet. One of the things he avoids is gluten, but also almonds, mushrooms?? It makes no sense but he is doing much better than before.

ModCloth has several swimsuits that cover areas typically exposed in most swimsuits.

I have this in red! It’s really nice

I also have the ModCloth swimsuit linked before. I wear a 38H. I feel like it could have more support, but it looks good. The bottom also provides a lot of coverage.

I’m in fucking Ohio and a good center is $1500 a month. And yet I really do think it’s only of the most worthwhile things I’ve ever paid money for.

At first I thought the first letter was just printed as-is and his response was mocking them.

YES oh thank god.

Especially if you’re taking a small child out alone. Because you’re that much less able to crawl under a table and clean up if you’re the only adult around. Plus, one entree and food for a toddler is cheap. We do TexMex a lot and if my husband isn’t with us, our bill might be $15?? I clean what I can, use baby wipes…

Those bibs are amazing. We usually keep (or ask for) an appetizer plate to portion her food out to her, and to allow the food to cool before she tries to cram it in her mouth.

We always have snacks in the diaper bag, so usually some crackers or dried fruit can tide her over while we order. BUT, any sort of buffet situation is great for kids (Chinese buffet, Brazilian steakhouse) or TexMex, since the food comes out pretty much immediately.

My eyes are two different shapes too :(

I did this for years. Honestly? I’m not so sure my skin is SO much better now compared to how SO much more expensive it is. BUT I totally love the ritual of it. It is a very nice and relaxing self care thing to do every evening while winding down. But does my face looo significantly different?? I really don’t know.

Is there anything to be done for skin that just gets crazy oily during the day? Are those oil absorbing sheets still a thing? By afternoon my forehead is slick and shiny. So is the rest of my face. My skincare regimen seems good, according to the lady who does my facials, but my face just gets shiny throughout the day…

Guys, I’m going on a trip soon. We want to pack light (but hahahah taking the toddler so we will have tons of shit), so I know I’m not gonna take my Clarisonic and typical 5-6 product skin care regimen.

Oh god this book. Whyyyyy.

Oooo now I’m gonna grab those books. My baby is almost two. Never did the parenting books thing before (probably also because I’m a school psychologist), but now I’m like “oh shit she understands and remembers things that I say”. Whereas infants are just lumps.

If you’re coming here to ask why these families aren’t adopting, please show yourself out.
