Re: Question! Breastfeeding moms and babies...

My mom literally kept a box of Fannie May candy "hidden" in her nightstand drawer. My guess is the Fanny Farmer candy in her nightstand helped her get through having 8 lively kids and their friends over. Your mom sounds like a sweetheart! NF52 my mom would shudder at the confusion of Fann...

Re: Question! Breastfeeding moms and babies...

My mom had a huge sweet tooth. We always had baked goods (chocolate chip brownies were one of her specialties) and had a "candy cabinet" in the kitchen which was the first destination of any friends of mine or my 7 siblings who came over. My mom literally kept a box of Fannie May candy &qu...

Another app I’ve found that I now use regularly is called Insight Timer. It has a ton of free guided meditations as well as music and discussions, among many other features. The online version is free, and they offer an offline version for $2.99 per month. I only have used the online version since I...

Re: Saturday, December 17 2016

Any Easter spent with a 2 1/2 year old grandson--who decided to dress in stretch pants, t-shirt and a plaid sport jacket with his shoes on the wrong feet--and his 5 year old sister in a pink flouncy dress and crocs (the better to climb on the playground equipment) is a great Easter!

Re: My Promethease: No wonder I am confused

I got the exact same results from 23&me/Promethease. Before doing that though I had already gotten my results from the Boston Heart test which determined I am apoe2/4. Furthermore, all four of my children have been tested through 23&me/Promethease and two were determined to be apoe2/3 while ...
