Raising an Adventurous Eater

September 19, 2009

My 2 year old son Oliver eats just about every­thing.  The other day, Janda and I had lunch at Aran here in Regens­burg, and Oliver had fresh Ger­man whole grain bread spread half with tomato-garlic spread and the other half with a tuna-artichoke mix.  He’s eaten caviar, blood sausage, raw onion, boiled beef with horseradish, […]

January 8, 2009

Peo­ple always told me I wouldn’t believe how quickly my child would grow, but things are get­ting ridicu­lous around here. My almost-two-year old has sud­denly decided he’s a forty-five-year-old busi­ness­man. While his mis­con­cep­tion can be enter­tain­ing, espe­cially when he demands the car keys and shouts “Bye Mama!” while head­ing for the door with his dad’s […]

My Favorite Bibs

September 16, 2008

My sister-in-law turned me on to DEX Dura-Bibs.  The pocket at the bot­tom, cre­ated by putting together plas­tic snaps, is wide enough to catch almost any drib­ble or spill.  The bibs are soft but thick enough to stand up to lots of wip­ing and wash­ing, and the pocket eas­ily unsnaps so the whole thing lies […]

Good Stuff: Sack-N-Seat

August 5, 2008

At eigh­teen months, my son is just big enough to sit up to the table in a nor­mal chair, but way too wig­gly to stay there for long. We use his high chair at home, but I’m too busy try­ing to stash his extra stuffed giraffe and some clean under­wear in our lug­gage to imagine […]
