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.
There is free lunch in my office today which is happy-making...BUT, it is BK Wed, so also sad-making.
I'm not really working yet today. I really should do something about the before the fire me.
Dad update:
He was discharged from the hospital 2 days.
RIGHT ON!!! He sounds like bionic dad! That EXCELLENT news.
His blood sugar should swing back into normal levels; major surgery screws *everything* up for a little while.
And thanks for the article. I'd be interested to see a similar study, but focused on adopted children to see how the food aversion and/or new food fear compares with children raised by their biological children.
I dunno. That would be a cool study. Further in the article, they quote
Hugh Garvey, an editor at Bon Appétit magazine, knows the heartbreak firsthand. He shares his experience on gastrokid.com, a blog he created with a British pal that details the gastronomic life of families. His daughter, 6, is an omnivore’s dream child. But his son, 3, will eat only brown food.

But his son, 3, will eat only brown food.Bwah! It makes me laugh so hard when kids will only eat a color. I pray Emeline doesn't do that cause with luck and her personality, she'd pick chartreuse or fuschia.
Okay, now the Timmy's coffee is attacking from the inside. Ouch, belly biter.
I have been obsessed with Mocha Nips candies. The $0.99 store carries them and I have been LOVING them. one box? Last quite some time. So good.
That sounds like something I'd love! Where was the recipe?
I got it from this book: Super Natural Cooking. I think it's called something like "Big Green Stirfry."
We've been pretty pleased with the recipes in there.
I have been obsessed with Moch Nips candies.
yummy! I haven't had one of those in years.
Also, that's good to hear about your dad!
Note to self: "Big Green Stirfry" /= Big Green Stiffy. Why you have to go there with me imagining the Jolly Green Giant?
