I am so blessed to have a husband who cooks up healthy, diverse, ethnic meals for our family. As a child, my father did all of the cooking and it's apparent that I've taken after my mother when it comes to culinary skills. One of my goals this year has been to increase the amount of meals I prepare at home and decrease the number of meals eaten out. When my husb... Read More »

Because I'm nursing my daughter, I continue to take prenatal vitamins. But as I begin to wean her, my needs will change and I'll likely switch over to a multi-vitamin formulated for women. The questions start to arise. Which mult... Read More »
