Reading Together, originally uploaded by Kate Chan. It’s 1:30 in the morning and here I sit with a laptop on my knees, a baby snorgling (really…she already has a cold) next to me and some bad reruns on TV to entertain my brain while I wait for the imp to completely crash. Somehow, in the [...]

Where does one start with a topic as big as our daily food. For me, the real food choices began when I thought I didn’t have any choices left that I could make. But that takes a while to get to. Forgive me. I’m going to ramble a bit. Growing up, my mom cooked great [...]

Soon-To-Be, originally uploaded by Kate Chan. Sometimes miracles just keep happening. It’s a miracle to me that the Chicklet is ours. The hoops, hurdles, and tons of love that have surrounded her in her short little lifetime and have brought her safely in to our arms is a story that will be thought about and [...]

A Slightly More Decadent Calas: Cocoa Calas, originally uploaded by Kate Chan. So the Chicklet has been home with a bit of a toddler-style, No-Day-Care allowed cold for the first couple days this week.

GF:Pao de quejo, originally uploaded by Kate Chan. I have to admit this. I love Brazilian Cheese Bread – but I really am working hard to save some money for us.
