I am a stay-at-home dad to one fantastic little girl, my little Boobaby, born February, 2006. Before I started this career, I was a naturalist, outdoor educator, youth mentor, and many, many other things. We live in San Francisco.

  • Cookie Cutter Guilt

    Posted on Thursday December 3rd, 2009 at 06:24 in food, cooking, Failure, discipline, pink, faux pas, big kids

    Let me just start by admitting: I try to impress 4-year olds. A couple of weeks ago we hosted one of those kids who makes preschool look like graduate school. She’s well-behaved and articulate — a great little role model for my, um, independe...
