But, really, the pickin's for sturdy, reusable grocery bags are slim. Which is why I want to introduce a new organic "Moms 4 Peace" bag - a logo similar to Babies 4 Peace with an eco-conscious design. Any ideas for artwork? Would you buy one?

Shopping Around
Since writing my 'grocery bag redux' blog a few months back, I've been paying extra attention to what people cart in and out of the supermarket. More and more moms and kids are schlepping green Stop & Shop bags, and I've even seen a few canvas sailing bags taking on extra duties above deck.

Diaper Dynamo
Carrots. Prunes. Sweet potatoes. Bananas.
No, this is not the ole family recipe for "Clear-Ya-Out Fruit Salad." It's what the little one is eating these days, with a dash of rice cereal thrown in for good measure.
A month ago, he'd never felt a spoon on his tongue. Now, he's a culinary powerhouse - gulping down anything and everything we put in front of him, including the organic Os we started sprinkling on his highchair last night.
All of this is not to brag, but rather as a precursor to the coming discussion of diapers... Much to our dismay, big-boy food = big-boy poop. And lots of it. We're all still working on a regular rhythm for these new developments, but in the meantime I've really grown to love Baby's Bottom Balm - a fantastic herbal diaper-rash guard that smells great and doesn't leave that sticky chalky white mess behind.
My sister-in-law bought me a 2 oz jar before Mack's arrival and it's still not empty - this stuff lasts forever. And the babe has never had diaper rash, so I've gotta endorse - now more than ever!
