With a baby on the way and a toddler just about to turn 18 months I knew I needed advice from other parents with experience raising two kids under the age of two. I truly appreciate the amount of feedback I’ve gotten from friends, family, and other mom bloggers on this topic. It was great that everyone kept it real and didn’t try to sugarcoat the realities of adding a new child into our family.
There are a few things I just can’t seem to remember. I learn these life lessons over and over but they just don’t stick.
Do NOT try out new recipes on guests.
Why I decide to make something new each time I have people over for a meal is beyond me. The recipe always ends up taking longer than it should. Often, the result isn’t what I wanted. When I make a recipe the first time I almost always have changes that I would make to it the next time, that is if I don’t decide to nix it completely. As a former Home Ec teacher, it is quite embarrassing when I am a disaster in the kitchen. Why don’t I just stick to recipes I love and I know I make great when I am trying to make a good impression?
