Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
In case others have the same questions/concerns as WindSparrow, it's not a serious recipe. The measurements are not typos, they're just in the style of West Collins [link]
I tried to make sense of that recipe so hard last night and very belatedly realized what it was. In my defense I was drunk.
Timelies all!
Cool, Scrappy!
My folks arrive some time today. It's going to be interesting figuring out meals, since going out with the little guy isn't a great idea yet.
Aww Sheryl, I look back fondly on the days of taking a newborn out to a meal. It seemed so daunting at the time, but in some ways it's less hands-on than going out with a toddler. Babies tend to sleep in their carseat most of the time. Of course, there is the occasional blow out to deal with, as well as bursting into tears as soon as mom's food arrives.
Sheryl, how are all of you doing? Can you send out your folks to grab take-out or prepared market meals while they're here and bring them back to you and the little guy?
Scratch the word "newborn" above. Didn't go out to eat with a newborn, but went out with a baby fairly often.
My mom took me to a cocktail party at about 1 week old. Ah, the 70s.
Yeah, I feel like there's a golden age of taking babies out -- old enough that the parents are comfortable (possibly 1 week, if you are brenda's mom!), not so old that they can move on their own.
Ah yes, Jesse
I was asked to not dry my hands (not for Grace to dry hers) after washing them in a public rest room because a mom of an infant was trying to change her child's diaper (he was buttnaked and crying and she was trying to use toilet paper to make a cover of the changing table). She said I couldn't use the hand dryer (there were no paper towels) because it freaked her already crying baby out.
Um? Okay. Lady, the ship of freaking your baby out has already sailed.
Also, Grace's GI removed her g-tube today. No more tubie! Now we just have a leakey hole until it heals.
