We're usually pretty up front with Evie about eating veggies and other healthy stuff but juice/smoothies are sometimes an easy way to hide veggies and get Evie to eat them. An even easier sell are popsicles! PohPoh bought a cute little popsicle set where the holders are shaped like a big ring. We fill them up with green juice and wah-lah! Evie gets her daily dose of veggie juice and she's none the wiser.
We got back from Japan about a week ago and we're still talking about what a great trip it was! Japan has never been super high on my places to visit but for a lot of reasons (I've never been, it's clean, it's safe, it's different) we took the plunge and booked it as our summer vacation this year. It helped that our friends, the Wongs, went last year, raved about it and loved it so much they were going again and we were able to coordinate so that some of our trip overlapped with theirs. It helped even more that the yen is at a 10-year low (maybe all time low?) against the dollar, which, aside from airfare, made everything quite affordable. Look how low the yen is! We lucked out that it kept falling after we booked our tix in Dec. Since this was our first big overseas trip since COVID and with kids (or, lets face it, SINCE kids), I dove into prepping for our trip - including trying to keep up my Duolingo streak of learning Japanese for at least a few minutes everyd
