When I can't find frozen peach slices, I drain a can of no-sugar-added peach slices, parcel into snack-size ziplocs and freeze. Must be frozen for my mid-day protein smoothie. They're still sweeter than fresh-frozen, but better than not frozen at all. I cap fresh strawberries and freeze a handful each in snack bags for the same purpose.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
At the very least, Kat, the stuff on this site seemed targeted to accommodate the needs of the NICU, so hopefully not that long. I think they fasten differently from normal onesies for that reason.
I've been tempted to grow out my grey, because there seem to be some interesting patterns going on, but unless I got a really close-cropped cut, the growing out stage would drive me bugnuts.
You can try the method where you get highlights in the base about where the grey is for the transitional period. I think you'd need to get a couple inches of regrowth for that, mind.
Which reminds me, I need to hit Sally so I can break the base and tone the highlights today. If I don't do it, I'll get all bored and weird and use that box of bright copper red.
I swear, this whole temptation to grow out the grey makes me miss the days of true semi-perm color like Loving Care. None of this "semi" that's really a demi crap.
You can also go blonde and then let the grey out as it would be as light as the bleaching.
I seem to have been randomly lucky on the greying sweepstakes, since I've gotten the same effect as very expensive streaking for the cost of growing out my hair.

ita, by any chance, was the site Anna's? I was looking at that site yesterday, and they seemed to have sleepers that accommodated all the NICU mechanics, but I couldn't get a close enough look to see for myself. that it would work while not being hell for mom or the nursing staff to deal with.
I'm fairly happy with the results of using a demi. If I leave it on a little longer than recommended, it takes hold of the gray enough that it lasts a few weeks, and I don't really care if it's initially too dark. I doubt I'll use a permanent dye again. Even if I'm not really allergic to them, I hate the stark way the roots grow out. I don't hate the way my hair looks with the gray; it's silvery and I think it's kinda pretty. Once it's grown out enough that I can cut off the reddish-brown part that was permanent-dyed, I may let it go natural. Maybe. I've been very conflicted over my hair lately.
Insert obligatory "boner" joke here:
Scientists say they have successfully made immature sperm cells from human bone marrow samples.
If these can be grown into fully developed sperm, which the researchers hope to do within five years, they may be useful in fertility treatments.
ION, it is cold and wet and miserable here. I got no sleep at all because MiniMoon was elbowing me in the kidneys ALL FREAKING NIGHT. This afternoon definitely calls for a nap.
Going outside today was a huge mistake. I went to the chain drug store a little ways away to get cold medicine and whatnot, and my pants, socks, and shoes were completely all the way soaked.
Timelies all!
I'm keeping an eye on the ever-increasing amount of grey in my hair. Since no one else has mentioned anything about it, I guess it's not enough to worry about. (Actually, I'm curious to see how I look with salt-and-pepper hair)
Yuck. I have to go into work today and I've been procrastinating something awful. ION, can you believe Don Cheadle just beat Phil Ivey in the NBC Heads-Up tourney?! ... I should probably get out of here.
