I never thought I'd...#1

I never thought I'd be one of those moms at a restaurant, surrounded by evidence of a baby (i.e., toys, burp cloth and booster seat), but eating solo. Aha! Now I get why you seldom see babies at restaurants past 7 p.m. This is their wind-down time, that is, if they're not already snug-as-a-bug-in-a-rug in bed. I thought I was doing a great job at molding Izzy to "our" schedule and not conforming to "hers." Apparently this only works between the hours of 7 and 7. Anything in between equals trying to keep your cool in a public place while your baby is squirming and/or eating solo. I knew this. I just had to try it out for myself. Lesson learned.

For my Foodie friends...

Below are restaurants Gwyneth Paltrow recommends in L.A. I'm still trying to picture her waiting for her order at a taco truck on the corner of Highland and Colorado in East L.A., but whateves!

GOOP- LA Update

And The Bazaar is having a 1-Year Anniversary special.

Am I the only one thinking of food at 10 a.m. in the morning? Maybe I'm just anticipating the day when I can eat whatever I want and not have to worry about the bun in the oven.

Cheers!

Tea/Tee Time

A few weeks ago my niece told me that for her 6th birthday she was going to have a tea party, but boys and girls would be invited. The girls would have tea, while the boys played golf. "Interesting," I thought, "A tea/tee party."

This past Sunday my sister-in-law did a fabulous job combining the two themes. The girls sipped tea and decorated fairy wings, while the little boys play a rough round of miniature golf. Check out how the two themes were reflected in her cakes. Great idea for a coed tea/tee party!

P.S. Am I suppose to open these gifts as I receive them, or save them for the shower?
