Obsessed with Buttercream
Posted on July 8, 2008 - Filed Under Mama's baby, Uncategorized, dessert, pasta | 2 Comments
Ever since my birthday about two weeks ago, I have been mildly obsessed. Okay. Completely obsessed. With what? Buttercream frosting. The name itself just rolls from the tongue in sweet harmony.
It all started with the beautiful marble cake that Shawn bought for me. It had this delicious creamy frosting and was decorated with a firm, [...]
She Eats!

I should have known that Paige would be gung-ho about eating regular foods . . . after all, I am her mother.
Paige has quickly gone from an immobile infant to a crawling baby. She’s sped from an 100 percent breastfed girl to a breastmilk, baby food and finger foods child. And she’s not showing any [...]

The Scene: Eating dinner with the family. Paige in her Exersaucer next to the table.
Paige: {{Shriek, shriek!}}
Will: (Leaning over the side of his highchair to see her.) It’s okay, Paige. I love you.

“Mommy, I want this,” Will said to me the other evening, holding up a bottle of pancake syrup - the kind I wish I could banish from our house since it is anything but natural. However, Will and my husband love it so it remains.
“That’s syrup, sweet pea. You can’t just eat syrup! That goes [...]

The heat wave in New England has subsided. After day after day of intolerable heat, it was cool yesterday (while it rained) and warm today. Thank goodness. The stifling heat is just too much for this pregnant woman to take.
Fortunately, today also happened to be the day that Virtual Frolic and I had planned to [...]
Out of the Darkness

The past week has been a blur of refrigerator repairmen, work, a quick turnaround freelance project and finding every spare minute to spend with Will.

Sunday afternoon was a blast. My good friend Virtual Frolic, Will and I went to Jones Family Farms in Shelton, Conn., to pick strawberries. It was the perfect day for it — not too hot, a nice breeze and a good amount of sun.
As a little girl, I used to go strawberry picking with my [...]
