Hip-hip-hooray for my new nephew! Nine pounds, born on the living room floor (my sister-in-law is a trooper!) So now I have an excuse to shop for all those great baby things I always gush over. This first gift, however, is for the parents - a fantastic book from Christie Mellor with a wickedly funny look at parenting. It's a hoot to read with items like Our Little Tot's First Martini Recipe ("All young children should know how to make this delightful yet deceptively simple cocktail for their parents..."), but there's some actual advice worked in ("Once it's time to go, it's wisest not to ask permission of your progeny"). I had great fun leafing through it months back when I first saw it, and I'm thrilled to have an excuse to finally go back for it.
