We peel everything now that we have a 1-year-old, who can't yet handle the texture of skin. I forgot how luxurious and elegant skinned mashed-potatoes and braised carrots could be! I might be conve...
I like the bathroom/garage idea. And I think it's great that you're trying to respect them, even if you two don't care for the firefighter garb.

@lbc - really, an air-conditioner in Long Beach? I'm a native, and never had a/c, never minded. Huh.

In fairness to stickyricemama, I think she was trying to say that there oughtn't be any real punishment, because at this age, it's all about prevention. It is true: if I don't want my 1-year-old ta...
I like making stock in the slow-cooker.
Also, Rick Bayless' Mexican Everyday has TONS of slow-cooker recipes. It was, in the end, his cookbook that made me so happy to have one.
No TV = No issue with where to put the TV! When we want to watch something, we just pop our laptop on the coffee table. But we're not big watchers (once every week, maybe once every other week), so...

Pac-Man eating a diamond? Sacre bleu!
