We just moved my daughter to a new school where we now have to send her lunch from home. While the bulk of her meal is not pre-packaged foods, adding an individual-size apple sauce or cheese stick or yogurt makes throwing a balanced lunch together in the morning a snap.

Could these stay in the fridge for a few days before serving, or should I freeze, even if for a short time? Recipe: Easy Ricotta Gnocchi |

I like homemade, but it's not Thanksgiving without the canned cranberries. The funny thing is, my husband's Midwestern family who use 'cream of X' soup and Cool Whip regularly are strongly opposed to the canned cranberries. I've been known to sneak a can into their Thanksgiving celebrations on occasion. What's Your Pick? Homemade vs. Canned Cranberry Sauce |

We rented a home with an Aga that had 4 small ovens. There was no way you would ever be able to roast a turkey or even bake a large casserole in any of the compartments. I don't understand the appeal! Aga Appliances: Classic Cast Iron Store Profile |

At home we have a CO2 tank which we use to carbonate at least a liter of water daily. Much cheaper and more environmentally friendly than buying carbonated water, and lasts a lot longer without refills than the Soda Club and equivalent machines. You do need somewhere to stash the unattractive tank though. Free Fizz: France's Fancy Water Fountain |

I'd just want to make sure there's enough air flow under the grass that the water dries, and doesn't just collect there and let mold grow. Boon's Grass Countertop Drying Rack | Apartment Therapy Ohdeedoh |

Yet another owner of a Gulliver who gives it extremely high marks. We had the crib at the high position until our daughter was about 8 months and now she's 11 months and we've dropped the mattress. She's a petite baby, but I haven't experienced any back problems from lowering her onto the mattress - and my back has been a wreck since pregnancy and delivery. I'm short at 5'2" so I just have to make sure that the top of the crib is at or above my hip bones and I basically fold over and lay her gently on the mattress.

Is that the Ikea Gulliver crib? I bought a crib skirt for ours and it seemed like it wouldn't work (couldn't get it between the bottom platform and the crib sides). Maybe I was doing something wrong! Apartment Therapy ohdeedoh | Follow-Up: Kristen's Homemade Nursery Bedding |

My dad also used to write notes on bananas for our lunches. Ball point pen works best. Apartment Therapy ohdeedoh | Decorating Fruit |

Whoa, Carrie's list seems like quite a lot of stuff! For example, we went straight to a convertible car seat because I can't stand lugging those infant seats and we walk with the baby in a sling or Ergo. Also, if you get a co-sleeper that eliminates a bassinet plus Pack and Play and you can use the booster seat for feeding at home and eliminate a high chair. Finally, bumpers are a necessity? According to the AAP and others you shouldn't have bumpers in the crib. Apartment Therapy ohdeedoh | Good Questions: What Do We Really Need? |

Do you mean the space between the vertical bars? I will check on this when I get home, if I'm understanding your question correctly. Based on my memory, all the vertical bars are equidistant from each other, so if one is too large than they all are. Apartment Therapy ohdeedoh | Reader Tip: Ikea Gulliver as a Co-Sleeper |

Very cute! We have a Gulliver crib, but also purchased an Arm's Reach co-sleeper for the first few months. If only we had seen this earlier! Apartment Therapy ohdeedoh | Reader Tip: Ikea Gulliver as a Co-Sleeper |

Thank you! I've been looking for a low profile bookcase in that price range. I'm ordering it today! Apartment Therapy ohdeedoh | Best of Sears |

I have the same question - I'd love to find somewhere in the US that sells that bookcase. Perfect for our tiny nursery. Apartment Therapy ohdeedoh | Funky Moose |

I absolutely love spa getaways and nights away at great hotels, but $500 per night seems insane. You could hire your own postpartum doula and get a hotel room for probably $300 max in upstate New York. Apartment Therapy ohdeedoh | Blogging NYT: Postpartum Retreats |

I really like the style and size of the DaVinci Annabelle Mini Crib but I read on one website that they're not to be used after the child can stand up. Has anyone heard of safely using a mini-crib for longer than that? Apartment Therapy ohdeedoh | Good Questions: A Crib for a Small Space |
