    Vermont History Expo 2012: Vermont in the Civil War

    June 13, 2012 /

    This weekend my husband and I are ridiculously excited to take our daughter to her first Vermont History Expo (not that she will remember it, but we will take lots of pictures) at the Tunbridge Fairgrounds. In addition to being an awesome high school history teacher, my husband is also a Civil War re-enactor with the Hemlocks. (Have I mentioned that we met at an American Revolution course for teachers in Virginia? We also got married at the Old Stone House complete with a contra dance – we are quite the history nerds!) Anyway, the Hemlocks are doing an encampment this weekend at the Expo complete with musket loading and…

    Surviving Blood Draws With Baby

    May 23, 2012 /

    I’ve finally recuperated from our trip to Boston and I feel like I have a minute to write (but only one, as Sweet Pea has recently become a lot more mobile so she requires all hands on deck when she’s not napping!) Recently, I’ve written at Mama’s Recess about some of the lessons I learned in the NICU with my daughter, particularly about strength and patience. While we were at Boston Children’s Hospital for three days of follow up appointments last week, Sweet Pea had to get blood drawn for labwork. This is something that happens frequently enough that I am starting to feel like an expert. This particular draw…

    Ask Vermont Moms: Should Sugary Drinks Be Taxed in Vermont?

    November 18, 2010 /

    Vermont leads the pack when it comes to healthy states.  Now, Vermont Attorney General William Sorrell proposes another way to help make Vermonters healthier:  tax sugar-sweetened beverages.  The health rationale behind the tax is to cut down on obesity by discouraging consumption of sugary drinks. Though at least half the money raised by the sugar tax would go toward improving Vermonters’ health, the tax proposal is generating buzz–including controversy–around the State and in the Statehouse.  Apparently, there’s already even a Facebook page dedicated to fighting the tax proposal. Between skyrocketing health costs, including those health expenses related to obesity, and studies linking sugary beverage consumption and poor health, including cancer, politics…
