A Lighter Shade of Green for St. Patrick’s Day {Leprechaun Smoothies}

March 15th, 2012 · 3 Comments

January 23rd, 2012 · 2 Comments

My son has been obsessed lately with preparations for the Chinese (Lunar) New Year. They’ve learned songs and made decorations at school and will be having a family potluck next week. To kick things off at home, we made paper lanterns and egg drop soup yesterday. He’s also asked for “uncut noodles” (symbolizing longevity) and […]
