I know we don’t want tons of kitchen gadgets cluttering up our kitchen, but if it’s something that will help up us actually eat more fruits and veggies, I’m all for it. And that’s why I have to recommend another magical fruit cutter!
I’m in Hawaii, and I’ve discovered The Pineapple Slicer
Have you always wondered how to cut a pineapple? Try this gadget- it’s great because you can leave the shell of the pineapple intact and put the cut fruit back in it, then use it as a centerpiece!
Hi Holly! I love your website and blog. What kitchen appliances do you recommend to prepare your family’s food? I am so excited to make homemade food for our six month-old son, but I realized that our cuisinart is probably loaded with BPA. Ugh! Do you suggest the Beaba? My only problem with that is that I would like to make larger quantities and freeze some, sometimes. I would love to hear your thoughts on this! Thank you soooo much!
Separately, we just signed up for a CSA, on your recommendation. Thanks!!
Yours,

Summer is here! Since it’s beach time again, remember to use a chemical free, mineral based sunblock for your precious baby’s skin. Here is my favorite: Badger Sunscreen SPF 30
It’s also mosquito central in these parts, so here is the best natural bug repellent I can find: Burt’s Bees Herbal Insect Repellent 4 fl oz spray
If you have a sunscreen or bug spray you already use but want to check the integrity of the ingredients, go to the Environmental Working Group’s Skin Deep Database and search for your products to find out if they’re safe to use on your baby.
Most importantly, have fun in the sun!

While having lunch at a friend’s home today, I watched in amazement as she effortlessly took the stem off the strawberries she was serving the kids. Since the majority of the Vitamin C in strawberries is located near the stem I’m always distraught as I lop it off, and sometimes I just throw the whole thing in my morning smoothie- greens and all. Not any longer! Where has this been all my life? This might be the coolest kitchen gadget I’ve ever seen. Continue reading Cool Kitchen Gadgets for Summer
