According to statistics from the Maryland affiliate of the Komen Foundation, Maryland has the fifth-highest breast cancer death rate in the nation, and in 2012 alone, 4,700 new cases will be diagnosed in the state and 810 women are likely to die. Since 1985, Breast Cancer Awareness Month has promoted mammograms as the most effective tool in the fight against breast cancer. In 1991, the Susan G. Komen Foundation handed out the now ubiquitous pink ribbons to participants in a New York City-based race for cancer survivors. Now, more than 20 years later, that pink ribbon can be seen almost everywhere—on apparel, on products, in store advertisements—and seems to be appearing year-round, not just in October, the month designated as Breast Cancer…

Kid-friendly food and a friendly staff take the stress out of family dining.
I love to cook. Sometimes, Little Miss S will help me cook and bake. But lately, I've realized that I'm often too tired to even think about meal planning. So instead of stressing out over dinner, once or twice a week we'll head out to one of our favorite family-friendly restaurants . It's tough to find a place to eat that everyone can agree on, especially when you have kids with sensitive palates (which means all kids). On top of that, we love a friendly staff which dooesn't give us the "evil eye" when the baby throws his food on the floor. After some trial and error, our favorite family friendly restaurants are: As much as I love our favorites, it's easy to get into a dining rut. I've gathered a new list of family-friendly restaurants …
