Well at least he's consistent.

Yesterday we headed out to Tanaka Farms in Irvine to take their annual Strawberry Tour and let the kids pick their own strawberries.  It was a blast, for both the kids and the adults!  Here are a few pics:  First they take you for a b

Okay, peeps.  I think it's time for a recipe post.  With Thanksgiving less than 48 hours away, it's a great time to share one of our family favorites: Sweet Potato Souffle.  It might put you into a diabetic coma, but it's s

What's for dinner? Here's your answer.

Sunday, 23 November 2008 8:09 A GMT-08
Peeps, I have a new favorite thing I must share with y'all.  It's called Super Suppers and it's this assemble-your-own-meal place where you, well...assemble your own dinners!  And then take them home to your freezer.  When

gotta love a place that will fry *anything*

Sunday, 3 August 2008 9:04 P GMT-08
No summer in SoCal would be complete without a trip to the OC Fair in Costa Mesa.  And I am not ashamed to admit that we quite literally ate our way through the entire fair.  Did not go on a single ride or play a single game.  (I also

Input...

Wednesday, 14 November 2007 12:42 P GMT-08
As you all probably know, Miss Felicity started eating solid foods about a month ago.  So I thought I would blog about something I'm pretty jazzed about: I'm making my own baby food.  I never did this with Tate, mainly because

where did the last seven months go?

Saturday, 10 November 2007 7:01 A GMT-08
Felicity is seven months old today.  SEVEN MONTHS!  I find it so hard to believe; I still think of her as my little newborn.  She is still such a sweet baby, and she is SO MUCH FUN now!  She laughs *so* easily, and it gives me an

first foods

Thursday, 4 October 2007 12:47 P GMT-08
Miss Felicity tried her first solid food this week, just a few days shy of 6 months old.  In an attempt to make her palate a little less bland than her brother's, I decided to start with avocado.  Here is the progression of how it

bon appetite

Tuesday, 7 March 2006 9:02 A GMT-08
Tate's palate *finally* seems to be expanding...a little.  We have battled with his "toddler anorexia" for so long now; at one point I thought he would live off of baby cereal and veggie sticks for the rest of his life.  But latel
