G. K. Chesterton and other words of wisdom . . .

"There is a great deal of difference between an eager man who wants to read a book and the tired man who wants a book to read."
-- G. K. Chesterton

"Many would be cowards if they had courage enough."
-- Thomas Fuller

"It is said that power corrupts, but actually it's more true that power attracts the corruptible. The sane are usually attracted by other things than power."
-- David Brin

Interesting Facts and Ideas in Child Care . . .

I'm always interested in finding out new things and sharing them. It is especially great when someone who reads this blog shares a link of their own http://cleaningbabybottles.com/! I'm pretty sure I don't miss that aspect of having babies but I wish I had known some of this when I did!

Oatmeal Cookies . . . again and again!

One of the readers of this blog shared a link  http://healthyoatmealraisincookies.com/ with more recipes for Oatmeal cookies. These are more in line with healthier eating. Seems to me that oatmeal cookies certainly lend themselves to a good diet and if you can cut a few calories and add a bit more fiber, don't tell your children they are good for them. Let them enjoy while you smile!
