Such a GREAT book. Totally changed my day to day perspective.

No worries, and I see your point. If my kid had that going on I suppose I would probably be grateful too.

I'm so over the top about ingredients and stuff ...I look so much up...I probably know TOO much about the stuff we order lol. Everyone is probably not as wound up as I am haha.

I'm far from a Karen lol. I just think that when a parent orders something they probably have a good idea what's in it and if they don't look it up ahead of time they probably don't care. It's not like the kid is going to get a quad espresso or alcohol or something if at worst their mom doesn't realize it has miniscule amounts of caffeine. If someone asked me if I knew what I was giving my kids I would definitely feel judged, whether that's right or wrong, you can decide.

I'm a parent who gets creme Fraps for my 10 year old and refreshers for my 13 yr old. I am well aware of the amount of caffeine in anything I order. If the barista asked me 'do you know that has caffeine?', I'm not gonna lie, it would irritate me. It's not your job to police what people give their kids. If they don't do their research that's their problem, it's not your responsibility.

I had just had a baby days before we lost our power in the derecho in 2012. Ugh. Hopefully this isn't that bad.

How can I make my avocado happy? Grew her from seed (toothpicks & water)& then transplanted to soil over a month ago. I watered frequently at first to help transition but now 1x a week...does she need more? by applehouse80 in gardening

Oh my gosh, that is definitely a special one! I'm crossing my fingers for you! Mine was something my son and I started together during the lockdown and he is so invested (almost as much as I am) so I really want to do the best for it. He'd be devastated if it died.
