Hi friends,Yep. You read that right. *Breakfast Cookies* With a subject line like that, how much can we really say before delving into the recipe?

Welcome back to 3 Good Things at Downtime, a recurring series where I chat with creative women I admire about their current loves—and the small, meaningful things shaping their lives right now. After our so-called “baby-led weaning” era (read: chaos disguised as autonomy), I found myself in the parenting equivalent of a culinary free fall—trying to feed Lily something vaguely nutritious, ideally tasty, and meltdown-proof, all before she turned into a pumpkin at 5:15pm.

Hi friends,When it comes to feeding our kids, one of the things we wrestle with most is sugar. There is so much conflicting guidance when it comes to sweet treats with kids, that every decision can feel like the wrong one. Sugar will kill them. No sugar will make them into a social pariah.

Hi friends,With Mother’s Day around the corner, we’ve been reflecting on the enormity and insanity of this journey that began for both of us (within a month of each other!) in 2022. And though the Green Spoon mostly exists in the weeds of being a parent—the brass tacks of surviving the morning, filling lunch boxes and providing dinner to a fickle constituency—we wanted to spend today’s post honoring what has nourished us most as moms.

Hi Friends,One of the requests we get most often is for dinner recipes that are actually doable when you’re strapped for time, energy and ingredients.
