If you’ve been on the hunt for booties with a bit of a heel, and the uber-popular Petty from Sam Edelman hasn’t worked for you, try these bestselling Clarks from Zappos. They’re from the Clarks Artisan line, which is one of the brands that most reliably makes comfortable heels, and I like the buckle detailing as well as the 1.75″ heel. They’re $130, available in sizes 5-12 in brown and black, at Zappos. Clarks Gelata Freeza (L-3)Sales of note for 1/16:

And — here are some of our latest threadjacks of interest – working mom questions asked by the commenters!
- The concept of “backup care” is so stupid…
- I need tips on managing employees in BigLaw who have to leave for daycare pickup…
- I’m thinking of leaning out to spend more time with my family – how can I find the perfect job for that?
- I’m now a SAHM and my husband needs to step up…
- How can I change my thinking to better recognize some of my husband’s contributions as important, like organizing the shed?
- What are your tips to having a good weekend with kids, especially with little kids? Do you have a set routine or plan?
I like the name of this shoe because it reminds me of ice cream.
I’m contemplating a mini-van purchase but only have two kids (both under age 3) and I’m not sure we need the extra space. The alternative is a small suv (probably a forester). Any fellow suburbanites out there who have gone the mini-van route and can provide any insight? It’ll be used to commute around 40 minutes a day and several trips to the grandparents, which is about a 3 hour drive. I am pretty opposed to a larger suv, so not considering those. Thanks!
Ha! I posted this on the Thursday thread and didn’t even stop to wonder why there were already 130+ responses before 10AM.
Does anyone have any idea for a meal planning plan/website app for a limited diet? We have a family member staying with us for a few months who has some health issues, the most minor of which is celiac, and some other grain intolerance issues. I guess we need something like a Paleo meal planner? But we’re not trying to lose weight, just avoid wheat and corn (and some other grains that don’t really pop up regularly anyway).
Thanks!
Happy Friday! Question for DC area moms. My husband and I got the exciting news last night that I’m pregnant- I’m waiting on the blood test results from Dr. Safran at Capitol Women’s Care- he gave me information about getting registered at Sibley (I guess that’s the hospital they are associated with?), which is significantly farther from our house than GW. Does anyone have thoughts or experiences with either one, or recommendations? If I want to go to GW, do I have to switch away from Dr. Safran? And if anyone has any recommendations for what else it’s best to start thinking about this early, please let me know!
How long did it take for your bo*bs to go back to normal after weaning? I stopped nursing about 2 weeks ago. Still 15 pounds above pre pregnancy weight. But I have been this weight before and have the bras that I used when I was previously this size- and the cups still overfloweth.
