First things first, I need a waffle iron that makes those tiny round waffles like you buy in the frozen section at the store. You know, they come as 4 stuck together? I keep looking online and I’m finding nothing more than Mickey Mouse waffle irons and (god forbid) Belgian waffle makers. I have nothing…

Recall (CORRECTED): Britax Regent car seats manufactured between 11/10/2005 and 6/18/07 have an important change to their installation instructions. This means these incredibly expensive seats will no longer work in some cars. If Britax is truly not offering any recourse to those affected, this is pretty amazing behavior from a company I used to respect.…

So glad I’m not going to be the only non-shoe-licker, non-Prada-wearing attendee at Blogher this year. Thanks Karrie! Wow, amazing and unexpected news — congratulations! I would have to have been hospitalized from the laughing. Mind-blowing news.

All Veggie Booty recalled
Thank you Karrie for alerting me to this. My kids eat Veggie Booty like it is made of candy. I think it is completely foul, but they love it. Looks like they’ll be missing out on it for a while now because it is ALL being recalled for salmonella! Check the details from the FDA…

I'm back, and my right eye is slightly shorter now.
Seriously. No joke. The smell of eyeball is foul. And the Valium they gave me ahead of time? Lame. Nothing. It didn’t “take the edge off,” I’ve just been unable to stop yawning for the past 5 hours. And lying in the surgi-recliner waiting for someone who you know is going to blast your eye…

Mama Blogga tagged me for the Charity Meme. The rules are simple, copy the list of charities and links (grab it from whomever tags you) and add your 5 favorite charities or non-profit organizations to the end (link to their sites with anchor text of the causes they champion). Of course finish things off by…

Recall: Risotto from Target. “I’m not always a good parent. Likewise, I’m not always a bad parent. I hope I am a good enough parent.” AMEN! “I told my realtor that the realtor who brought them here is never to step foot on my property again.” Because what Mir needs is more stress right now.…

Congratulations to you both :) Another person who understands that doctors work for you, not the other way around. SNORT!

OK, who has the crown? Please mail it to Jessica — it’s her turn this week. Congratulations! I wonder if the fact that the boy in this story is eleven is what is causing the problem? Maybe the laws cover older kids? Either way, it is a terribly sad situation. A botched massage? How disappointing!…

Food recalls: Pet treats, and more pet treats. Way to GO, One SMART, MOTIVATED Mother!! I voted, more specifically, for the color of funky, nasty, dried ketchup. “Light beer is not for me.” That’s some heavy dues for a 4 year old… Today’s Cry, Cry Again post involves a tie clip and handmade book. Hmmm,…

Product recalls: Lead in keychains, lead in children’s bracelets. Just don’t buy this crap, OK? It appears to always contain lead. Check this sweet photo that just screams “love.” The best weddings are the ones where the couples really love each other. And now some sweet mom love. I love those talks too. Yeah, that…

People who cannot imagine that it is possible to have a different view than their own bug me. They bug Suzanne too. Do you have pets? Check the giant pet food recall. (Thanks Rhonda) I think BMI is a crock — way too low for most folks I know who do not aspire to be…

Food recall: Salmonella in your fruit. Sigh. Doss is in a new hospital. One where they can apparently deal with, you know, test results and things like that. I wish you all well. I’m calling you someone who needs a nap. Me too. And again I say “me too.” You should see my glasses. I…

Andria, they’re going to come after us again if you keep this up! “Best Pregnancy Picture Ever.” Agreed. I have SO been there. I cry foul. How is this really possible?
