One of the family cats drools over bread. Also cheese. I discovered that he's also rather fond of whipped cream in a can (is that Rediwhip? I think it is)

One of the cats likes yeasty things here. Found a ziplock of friendship bread broken into on th counter one time, and we no longer leave loaves of bread within reach after another.

I think it was Harvey, but we didn't see him.

Heh.

So, when does a baby move out of the crib and into a bed?

When s/he starts threatening to climb out and fall on his/her head. Alternatively, when you're expecting the second kid: you want to separate the crib/bed transition from the only child/eldest transition so that the kid won't blame the baby for taking over the crib.

I managed to totally embarras myself in front of Teacup Guy's family last night. When you are 4' 10" getting on and off of bar stools can be very difficult. I managed to get on one last night, but when I went to get down, I ended up flat on my back on the floor. I didn't get hurt, but I was humiliated. However, dinner was nice and we had a great time.

{{{Sail}}} Much ~ma to your aunt.

Beth, I love your new cut. Very pretty!

When s/he starts threatening to climb out and fall on his/her head

Too bad about the "and," as Mallory has "falling on head" covered.

And then toddler bed? Or actual bed, with side rails?

Having a cat is SO much simpler.

Oh, can someone Nilly me the beth haircut? I missed it!

In omgI'mbecomingdomestic news, I have now cooked two meals in a row. Last night I made filet mignon in roasted pepper vinigrette with fresh peppers and fresh dill sliced and sauted (sorry, too lazy to HTML the accent) and a fresh lettuce, soy bean, grape tomato, and sliced pepper salad. This morning I made an egg scramble with sliced grape tomatoes and fresh dill with organic hickory-smoked bacon and sliced bananas.

I hope ND isn't going to get used to this...

Actually, the reason why I'm doing this is less fun. I've been put on a two week strict low-carb diet to get my blood sugar regulated and to get my system back in whack. It's all screwy right now, which my chiro thinks is contributing to my severe back pain. Sooo...since it's next to impossible to avoid all complex carbs in a restuarant, I'm cooking at home these next couple of weeks.

On the up-side, it appears that I can cook.

my cold has reached the stage where opening up my head and scooping out the insides would give me the most relief. My nose is way to small to deal with the drainage needs

What worked really well for us was putting a mattress on the floor. You can't roll off a mattress. Once the kid can reliably sleep on a mattress, go to a bed. Toddler beds are really cute (we bought one), but a twin with a rail will do fine.
