A couple of months ago, a friend of mine posted about why she blogs. Then posed the question to her readers - why do you blog?

I've been meaning to answer that question here since she posed it and only got around to it tonight -- more than four months later. Months in which I've been unusually quiet in this space.

Now I'm not sure whether the question ought to be why do you blog or why don't you, but I imagine the answers are intimately intertwined.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[So it&#8217;s been quiet around here. Again. I guess that&#8217;s what happens when life gets in the way. Since Poppy&#8217;s arrival three years ago, October has become an especially busy time for us. This year it included: our annual family portraits, a superhero birthday party, my favorite three year old&#8216;s birth day, a family wedding, a visit from our Brooklyn BFFs, and Halloween. I got tired all over again just writing that. Then there was Superstorm Sandy. Not only did it abruptly cut our BFFs short visit even shorter as they had to change plans and rush back to NYC a day and a half early to beat the storm (*sob*), but it&#8217;s kept my heart lodged up somewhere near my tonsils for the last week and a half. All of our friends and loved ones are accounted for and mostly ok, living in dark, cold apartments and without public transportation. Some pulled through the storm like we did Irene last year &#8212; hunkered down with a lot of canned goods for a a day only to emerge unscathed on the other side, electricity and all. But many many others were nowhere near as lucky. Areas of NYC dear to [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Since moving home to Chicagoland, our diets have taken some hard hits. In Brooklyn, we had lots of options for our "weird" way of eating -- home cooking, whole foods, organic, mostly local, primarily vegetarian. Here? Not so much. We didn't realize quite how badly until we spent 6 weeks searching for tempeh. Once we realized we couldn't find it, we absolutely had to have it. Tempeh became our holy grail. Finding it would mean we could survive the suburbs; not finding it a major blow to our reacclimation.

		<description><![CDATA[Someone asked me the other day how baby-led weaning is going. Initially, I wasn't sure how I wanted to respond, but decided I'd go with totally honest: It's going fine, it turns out Boo loves to eat from a spoon (d'oh!), and I still forget to feed her "real" food more days than not.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I haven't written in a week and a half. I've been meaning to, as I always mean to, but haven't been able to make it happen. Things are going well, but just... blah. I've hit a rut of some sort and am trying to find my way out. I don't suffer from depression, but sometimes the seasonal changes knock me a little out of whack anyway. No wonder we're all a little off kilter.]]></description>
