I'm a picky eater and I use DD as a good way to get rid of foods I don't like. This morning she ate my eggs and yesterday it was the peas and carrots out of my rice from Panda Express. I'm taking advantage while she's not picky!
FFFC: If I pee at home, I don't wash my hands afterward. I always wash my hands at the kitchen sink before I do anything with food, so sometimes that means I walk from the bathroom, into the kitchen and wash them then. But if I don't go to the kitchen after I pee, my hands remain unwashed until I do.
I once changed DS1's diaper on the floor board a moving car, on the German/Austrian autobaun. We were driving from Croatia to Munich to get our flight back home and he had a massive blow out right when we entered a mountainous section with no exits to stop at.

Do you flush the toilet?
Nope, if it's yellow, let it mellow, if it's brown, flush it down
I give C white grape juice almost everyday. Usually no more than a few ouncws and it's always in a sippy. Apparently many on parenting think this is a big no no. If I was still working at the daycare and C was going there, he would get it there- why not at home. I think it's the reason he figured out how to use the sippy cup. When it was just water he would throw it in the floor. After I put some juice in there he actually started using it the right way.

This is H's motto as well, which is fine, it really doesn't bother me. However...he will use our master bathroom first thing in the morning, not flush and then no one else will use it for the whole day (it's upstairs and out of the way), so when I go to use it before bed, it is full of rank smelling pee. DNW.
Yuck! Yeah, we only have one bathroom so the toilet still gets flushed fairly often. And morning pee is stanky! He doesn't have a morning poo?

I'd say we flush every 3-4 uses. It's not like it just sits there indefinitely stinking and waiting for a poo.

I personally don't think they need it. Water and milk are enough. I also saw this and it stuck with me. Personally I don't care what others feed their kids.
People aren't plants. I soak horse shit in a bucket of water and then pour it on my plants. While I don't regularly give my kids juice, it does contain vitamin C and water.

Oh I totally soak horse shit in a bucket of water and then pour it on my kids. Miracle grow, yo!

But does he still drink it when water is in it or only juice? Serious question, not judging.
This is kind of why I don't get why people are hesitant about juice. Usually those same people give candy, cookies or other things with sugar. Why not juice? I am really curious, not looking to start a debate or anything.
But i honestly don't bag an eyelid at a kid drinking juice either. I kind of more side eye the moms who are strictly no sweets. Mother of the year over here!
Mommies who nevergive their kids sugar get invited to the prestigious Secret Mommy of the Year awards and are awarded a gold star for their dedication to being a pretentious twat. It's right up there with no screen time....
My kid just ate flavored yogurt and puffs for lunch. Out of curiosity, I compared, and he had as much sugar in the yogurt as I had in my pop last night. He's also had ice cream, cake, and cookies on various occasions. But he ate broccoli twice yesterday....sooooo, it all kind of evens out, at least in my book.

Oh and another one. Only my youngest brother lived at home with my dad when this happened. My bro walked into the bathroom not knowing my dad was in there brushing his teeth. My brother goes ballistic my dad was using his toothbrush by mistake. My dad says what are you talking about I've been using this for months ha ha ha
I used to keep a toothbrush at DH's when he lived with his parents for emergencies but used it so infrequently that I always forgot which one it was. 99% sure I used MIL's toothbrush at least 1/2 of the time. /anecdote
A big fat no to not flushing the toilet after use. I don't care what is in there. Flush it.
And wash your hands. If you are into saving water get a half/full flush water saving toilet. The only place "yellow let it mellow" flies with me is at the lake or on a boat.
Good FFFC today. I also don't find changing diapers in the boot of the car to be flame worthy. It's my favorite fold out changing table.
So I have a FFFC I've been meaning to post for weeks, and it's related to McDonald's chicken nuggets. They don't carry hot mustard sauce in the Midwest anymore, despite the online petitions I've signed and complaints I've made at all of our local chains. I buy tons of it every time we go to the coast and bring it back in my suitcase. Hot Mustard for lyfe.

And I have a second one. Last night I had a dream that my husband turned into Kenny Powers (THE Kenny Powers, not Danny McBride) and I was so stoked. He may look a little bit like him. I'm pretty sure I need counseling if I'm having Eastbound n Down sex dreams.
tatersalad, excuse me because I am not a mustard person, but how does hot mustard from McDonald's compare to hot mustard from Chinese takeout? Just curious because I always feel like those Chinese takeout places are way too generous with that kind of stuff.
DH is completely dumbfounded by my sudden desire to redo the entire house. I blame the "show me you house" thread. In the past three days I have bought blinds for two rooms, paint, a new bed spread, a new shower curtain, and just picked up a new pedestal sink and faucet for the boys bathroom.

Good god, what kind of yogurt?
It's the Stoneyfield YoBaby yogurt - it's got 9 g of sugar. The pop I had last night was from my soda stream, so I think it's not as bad as like, Coke, but still. I've tried buying plain yogurt and mixing fruit into it, but then DS won't touch it. At least the yogurt is still offering some other nutritional benefits though, I got zero nutrition out of my fake Sprite last night. Unless cherry vodka has actual cherries in it.

Best confession ever. I have a (smaller) stash in my fridge because in my area of Michigan, one McDonalds still actually carries it, one doesn't. So in the event I wind up at the one that doesn't and order nuggets, I'm safe. Because hot mustard is the only acceptable dipping sauce for McNuggets.

Ok, I just googled amount of sugar in a can of coke and it says 39 grams. So substantially more than your soda stream! Does your LO like peanut butter? They have this powdered peanut butter called PB2, you can mix it in plain yogurt. I used to do it for DS1, maybe I should start that up for LO because I definitely have yobaby in the fridge right now!

He does like peanut butter, but I've never tried the powdered kind - that's an awesome idea though, might have to pick some up at the grocery store this weekend, thanks!

It's not nearly as hot as Chinese hot mustard, more of a tangy flavor.
