Technically this was for her birthday (which is still a month and a half away). It came via UPS today. I couldn’t hide it away. I had to get it out so she could play with it. I know I’m terrible. I’m horrible at waiting for anything. My new obsession will be buying wooden food for her (I love wooden… Read More
Salad Obessions
Lately, for whatever reason, I have been loving salads. Not that I didn’t like salad before, but now I love it. I’ve been making what I like to call “dump salads”.
