Last week, MSNBC reported that researchers from the University of Arizona identified E.coli amongst a host of other bacteria on shopping carts. I am honestly not surprised.

Last year, we sailed smoothly through cold and flu season, most likely due to the fact that my son was not in preschool. My daughter was an infant and I was worried about such a tiny baby being exposed to preschool germs.
