My Balance: Tragic Sandwich
I don’t know anyone in this photo; I just liked it! I got this idea from a post on Oil and Garlic; she got it from A Cup of Jo. Does that make it a meme? At any rate, here… Read moreMy Balance: Tragic Sandwich

Some Days, I Wish I Had Twins
Before you say, “Tragic Sandwich, that’s crazy talk,” hear me out: Baguette hates to go to sleep. And what we’ve come to realize is that part of what she hates is being alone. Which makes sense, because nighttime is the… Read moreSome Days, I Wish I Had Twins
Go, Dog, Go!
Baguette loves books, but she won’t let me read to her. She grabs the book out of my hand and goes through the pages in whatever order makes sense to her, pointing and chattering about what’s on the page. At… Read moreGo, Dog, Go!
How to Mommy Blog
That title should probably have a question mark at the end of it, because this isn’t an advice post. I’m too new at this topic to give advice (eh, like that stops me anywhere else). Instead, this is a post… Read moreHow to Mommy Blog

So, what did we eat during our trip to Santa Barbara? Well, Baguette ate her usual array of dried fruits, Kix, and Wheat Thins, plus whatever seemed appealing from our plates. Our Motel 6 turned out to be very conveniently… Read moreBeach Blanket Baguette, Part 2

We worked hard to avoid one. My contention? A one-year-old doesn’t know it’s her birthday. She doesn’t know what birthdays are. So the party isn’t really for her. That’s why we went with a party we wanted–cookout and cake, served… Read moreBirthday Extravaganzas
Tomorrow is Eggs Benedict Day
Seriously! But since tomorrow is also Baguette’s birthday party (my baby–and at her age that’s not a euphemism–turned one on Wednesday), we will be preparing for family and friends, not going out to breakfast. Which just means I’ll have to… Read moreTomorrow is Eggs Benedict Day
Christmas Redux
Not the way you think. Baguette had a stomach bug that she passed on to Mr. Sandwich, and I developed some sort of nasal congestion/drippy horror that threw me for a loop. We had this exact combo at Christmas, when… Read moreChristmas Redux
