We have a french press. No grinder, but husband crushes it in the mortar and pestle and it is better than anything ever. Rich and smooth and "artisan" ha.

Perfect for little kids who need that carb/calorie/protein boost at around 10:30. A couple of these and a piece of fruit would be a perfect snack to take to school. Way better than a bar. I do agree that breakfast is more substantial in our house. As a brunchy snack, though, just right.

It's important to find out who funded this study. When I looked up the study, it shows that the researcher did not disclose the potential conflicts of interest, but the forms can be viewed. I tried to open the forms & they wouldn't open so it's hard to say... but any time you read about "the latest study" the first thing you should do is try to find out who funded it.

And who buys organic because they think it's more nutritious? Just echoing the sentiments of everyone else here. There are plenty of health and environmental reasons to by organic. Also somewhat related: count me in on voting YES on 37!!

Adorable. Totally up my 7-year-old's alley. Too bad shipping is ridiculously expensive. $8.50 for a $5 activity book?!!

Love it! I have none of those things, but we are extreme minimalists. Makes life feel clean, bright, breathable and happy. We have a 7yo daughter and she's already anti-clutter. Her little friends love to come to play. They love all the openness and space. So it can work for families. We love to visit friends with cozy, cute, stuff-filled homes, but this just suits us best.

all of these ideas are great, esp cucumbers and grapes, snacks that provide a little bit of water as it's easy to get dehydrated in the air, esp on long flights. and protein (like nuts and dried fruit) for something a little more substantial. one of my favorite memories is of traveling to dubai with my four-year-old. her friend had grown a massive cucumber and wanted to give it to her as a going away gift. she was really attached to it and wanted it as a snack for the plane. it was hilarious to see the looks on the passengers faces as she gnawed on that cuc which was as long and thick as her arm.

i always hated the AT haters in the comment boxes and i hate even more that i have to be one, but this is not a site i would visit or send friends too. too cluttered, too plain, and the design does not lend credibility to a design site. i would check AT up to three times a day (for years!!) and now i'm not coming here anymore. i've tried to feel it, but it's like eating in a restaurant with bad lighting and uncomfortable seating. regardless of content, i can't relax here. so aesthetically blah. and why ditch the clever little names? ohdeedoh is "family" now? that's no fun. i avoid "family" sites, but i would make an exception for ohdeedoh. anyway, enough ranting. sad to say goodbye to one of my favorite sites.
