Thank you so much for your thoughtful post. And, thank you to all the readers for the comments. I just selected marble for my new kitchen and was a bit skeptical because we really aren't all that careful... and we have two toddlers. But, the marble is just so beautiful. I had to go for it.

I also love this list. A few that resonated with me:

15. Resist the urge to apologize when you’re cooking for people. Most of the time your dinner guests won’t notice anything is wrong until you bring it up.

57. People who say bribery is not a good way to get kids to eat have never had kids.

67. When roasting potatoes – or any vegetable, really – cook five minutes longer than the recipe says. And then cook five minutes more.

We had our coffee table pre-kids and it has worked out really well. We have the Pottery Barn Metropolitan Round. Two kids later and no major mishaps. Plus, the shelf on the bottom conveniently holds books, puzzles, toys.

Lowter - I completely agree about the Pacific Natural Foods Organic Roasted Red Pepper and Tomato soup. So good. That is always in my pantry.

I agree with others, ask her. I use Splenda as a substitute when I bake for my dad, but I avoid artificial sweeteners (I eliminated it from my diet during my first pregnancy).

Still nursing my 10 month old and I absolutely see a difference in my milk supply when I consume oats. Whether it be a bowl of oatmeal, oatmeal cookies, granola bars, etc.

Does anyone have that 4 tier cooling rack? I've had my eye on it but I'm afraid it might not be stable enough. Any reviews?

And, I agree with CANGELOBE, a dessert list like this would be great too. Thanks!

@MISSDEWEY - yes!

Toddler-enticing, vegetable-based dishes for breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks. They don't have to be vegetarian, but veggie dominant, please.

My 2.5 year old daughter did this a few months ago. I left the room and she had moved her snack bowl and cup to the stool and was just sitting there eating. If it had occurred to her to move it in front of the TV she probably would have!

I've also been a fan of Creative Thursday for many years now. Both of our kids have prints in their rooms. Excellent choices.
