    THANK YOU for bloging about my piece in the NYT! I'm so happy to share that wonderous mother/teen/nature moment. There's a photo essay of the drive depicted in my essay on my blog: http://lauramunson.wordpress.com/2010/07/24/new-york-times-lives-column/yrs.Laura

    Laura–My husband was also blown away by this. Tonight we'll both look at the photo/blog. Our boys (and our life together) is chronicled in my cookbook Mad Hungry (and, soon to be TV show). You might see a thing or two of familiarity in there. We both look forward to your book.Best,LSQ

    I have to laugh. I have two boys who look just like yours (in their Old Navy skivies morning till night) and the same look on my face most of the time.
