Superbowl Weekend - Please Drink Responsibly....
At New Year's I posted a request for responsible drinking, even at home - sharing the tragic story of Alcohol Poisoning that happened to the son of one of Wayne's colleagues. Binge drinking is the leading cause of Alcohol Poisoning and it CAN BE FATAL - so please check my post for the symptoms if you are hosting or attending a Super Bowl party serving alcohol...

The Benefits of Cooking with your Kids and a #BensBeginners Contest announcement
Getting kids to eat healthy is tough - and with Liam's special needs and dietary issues it's even tougher. One of the ways that we're trying to encourage him to try new foods and eat more variety is to get him involved in preparing his own meals. Even if it's spreading the peanut butter on his gluten-free bread or adding raisins or other add-ins to the cookie dough mix, we're working to expand his culinary experience. For most kids Liam's age it's a perfect time to get budding chefs into the kitchen! Kids aged five to twelve make excellent cooks!
Robyn has been cooking with me since she was three and a half and now, at thirteen, she is comfortable enough in the kitchen to cook dinner on her own a few times a month - everything from planning the menu, making a shopping list and doing the cooking! It's so nice to be able to empower her (and have a night off!)
Not only can you empower the kids to take pride and responsibility for the food they eat, you can also teach valuable skills:

Many of you who who have been reading Acting Balanced for a while know that I'm A Tea Granny and proud of it!

Which brings me to today's review and giveaway - Oregon Chai has brought out three fabulous new flavors of Tea Bag!
MMMmonday - Wine Jelly
A few weeks ago I got to head to a Moms' night out and met a new member of our club who shares so many parallels with me - her son has Asperger's syndrome and is on a GFCF diet and she also has a little one... so we had lots to talk about - luckily we didn't spend the whole night talking about kids... we also spent time talking about Wine and the thread soon moved to Wine Jelly - such a yummy way to use up a bottle of wine that didn't quite meet your tastes or that you need to open 'just because' and have to finish up!
I told her I'd post my recipe so that it would be easy to find... and here it is:
