Purple potatoes, the new black

Color affects everything. Our mood, our eye color, to the way we respond to our environment (ever heard that bit about restaurants using red in their decor to make you hungry?) Maybe you're a natural lover or brights, perhaps your taste changes with the season.
Today I am

A few years ago a blogging friend of mine offered a photo challenge, to take one photo of yourself right now. No edits, no prep. I have remembered that and try it from time to time, and then i try to love what I see.

Today I am...

a make juice with my boy and then his lunch mama
a wash all the dishes and get us dressed and off to school mama
The most common question I get
What's the deal with milk? What kind should I buy? What should I give my child?
These are some of the most common questions I get asked. I have to admit, when asked I rarely have a clear answer that gets to the meat of the nut for the person asking.
Milk is tricky. I'll try to keep it simple.
Happy Birthday to me Hobbit Style

Originally written on March 6, 2012.
I was born on March 6, 1978.
I am always sure to include the year. For so long I have looked younger than my age (though the inevitable is happening), and I've always felt this need for people to know how old I really am. Some friends and I were talking about this recently, turns out all 3 of us had had similar feelings in the past about age, perception, and feeling this need to prove ourselves through years.
