Monday, August 3rd was a Peanut Allergy Friendly day with the Colorado Rockies! We attended a handful of Rockies games when Zax was still a babe/toddler in arms, and we had no trouble at those games. Even after his peanut allergy was diagnosed, I don’t remember having issues with the few Rockies games we attended. Read More …
This recipe is in our lives because of Hubby. He found it in some sort of parenting magazine while waiting to get his hair cut a few years ago, and he decided to surprise us with it.

As I mentioned a few weeks ago, we discovered that Zax’s threshold for egg white was a whopping 21 mg (3/1000ths of an egg) after entering him in a study at National Jewish Hospital. Entering that study was a long and involved process though. We’d been directed to them from the administrator of a different Read More …

I gladly accepted! Dean is my partner in all things, especially in Allergy Superheroes. Without him, I don’t Read More …
This pasta salad is a favorite of hubby’s and mine. The chopping is a little time consuming, but not too bad and it is SOOOO worth it. It’s also easy to substitute ingredients or personalize with veggies that your family enjoys. Our boys still don’t like too many ingredients mixed together, but we’re working on Read More …
