Hi Reader, There’s so many things in my kitchen that I can’t imagine living without! I wanted to share them with you today because I rely on them so much. I have to give a special call out to the sous vide— this is how restaurants cook meat and seafood! You know when you get a steak that’s just so perfectly cooked through…that’s thanks to a sous vide. All you have to do is brown the outside in a pan — the rest is completely hands-off, with a perfect result every time.

Hi Reader, Do you know what is so not sexy? Kids nutrition. Every single day I pour my heart into it because it’s something I’m passionate about and I’m one of those people who just never gives up on the things I care about. But out of ALL the things that you can consume online, there’s plenty that is more entertaining, exciting, fun, funny, beautiful, etc. So first I want to say THANK YOU for putting some of your limited free time toward such a worthy subject that will greatly benefit your...
Hi Reader, One of the most useful things I’ve taught my kids (besides wiping their own butts) is how to make their own breakfast. This morning I went out to walk the dog and realized that was only possible because the kids could get themselves fully ready for camp without me.

Hi Reader, I had summer amnesia. Somehow I blocked from my memory just how hard it is to manage a single thought when the kids are home from school.
