Thanks to Josie in CA who let us know about the latest marketing ploy at Gerber.

Previously, the group had recommended that [...]
We just had to post this yummy sounding recipe submitted by Sarah in New York. Sarah wrote to let us know how she dispensed with the leftover turkey and pumpkin from the Holiday dinner. “I thought your readers would love to try my Turkey & Pumpkin Soup that I created for my little guy (9 [...]
I thought i’d post about being prepared in emergencies – this post comes from an old page that I have yet to update. At the time, we had just gone through serious flooding and rain. Living in an area of New England that can be pummeled by rains, floods, ice storms and Nor’ Easters, I was reminded to [...]

Here in NH we are part of one of the worst ice storms in NH history! It’s day 7 of no power. We’re lucky to have a big wood stove for cooking and heat. Wow is it humbling to think of those who never had the comfort of electricity and still carry on with their days tasks! We’re doing well and managed to salvage food. If you have time please check out our article about food in a power outage. Search for it using our search bar. We’typing this from an iPhone so it’s difficult to get the link for you now!
We hope to get a generator today for hot showers and the freezer. We won’t be able to do site work for awhile. We apologize to all of you who have shared your precious little ones via our gallery. We miss being able to read all about them and add them to our gallery! Unfortunately we are all without power and prefer to not outsource our updates to others!
Happy holidays. We hope your little ones enjoy the magic and warmth of the season. Especially all the gummy foods!
With luck, we will have power for Christmas day.
