Can someone please just ask me if my kid is sleeping through the night already?????????

I feel like people ask you this all the time starting from when your baby is, like, 1 week old.
And you have to be all “Errrr, uhhh, (insert downward glance/ashamed face) no.”
BECAUSE WHAT ONE WEEK OLD SLEEPS THROUGH THE NIGHT?!
And also, side note, why as a society are we obsessed with forcing our littlest ones to sleep for twelve hours at a time without eating? I don’t even go twelve hours without eating and I’m an ADULT. This is normal human behavior! FEED YOUR BABIES PEOPLE.
End rant.

Anyways, can someone PLEASE ask me again because this time I can finally say, at 14 months of age….my baby sleeps through the night! In her own bedroom! (Because, yeah, she was also sleeping through the night in MY bed, latched onto my boob for 8 hours straight. But apparently that doesn’t count??)
I really shouldn’t have said anything because I’m totally going to jinx it, BUT it’s been almost two weeks. So I think we’re good? Until she gets a tooth or the wind changes or something. Kids are fickle like that.

I’ve always been a MAJOR supporter of the idea that sleep is developmental and your kid will sleep on their own when they’re ready and not a minute before. This has made me believe that EVEN MORE.
Because one night Remy was waking up at 1AM and then sleeping in our bed for the rest of the night. And the next she was sleeping in her own bed until 5:30-7:30AM. (It’s variable.)
Honestly, we did absolutely nothing to make this happen. Mike claims that we did crying it out because he let her cry for five minutes the first night and then she put herself back to sleep, but I don’t really believe that’s it because we did that like a million nights previously and it did nothing.
She was just ready. And the rest is history.
Soft Corn Tacos with Roasted Sweet Potatoes, Poblano Peppers, and Corn
Tacos to celebrate??
They’re the best way.
These are full of sweet smoky spicy caramelized roasted veggies, salty cotija cheese, and hearty black beans. Yeah, you have to turn the oven on, but you could probably also grill the veggies for an even better, deeper flavor. If you try it let me know!
And please please please, if you’re a momma with a kiddo who isn’t sleeping through the night yet, don’t let this post stress you out! If it can happen for me, it can happen for you. I promise.

easiest coconut cauliflower adobo. Sharing my vegan twist on a traditional Filipino dish with this Filipino Coconut Cauliflower Adobo. I’ve swapped the chicken for nutrient-packed cauliflower and slow-braised it in soy sauce, vinegar, and bay leaves. Coconut milk adds a touch of creaminess to this sweet and tangy adobo sauce making it especially delicious. This is best served over steamed rice with fresh avocado and a side of beans. The perfect healthy, 30-minute dinner, any night of the week. It’s officially the deep, deep, deep winter around here. We had a cold, but beautiful, snow-filled weekend. At this point, I’m not yet sick of the snow and still very much embracing the cozy weather. Hoping you all are too, because it’s only mid-January and we still have a ways to go before spring! As I mentioned Sunday, I decided to cancel a quick NYC trip to be able to spend some time with my mom for her birthday on Saturday. It was good I did because all the snow would have caused so...

snickerdoodle macarons

snickerdoodle macarons Need a new way to enjoy your favorite cinnamon sugar cookie? These snickerdoodle macarons are IT! You know how during job/residency/medical school/graduate school/college interviews you’re occasionally asked to give an example of a challenge that you overcame? Well, I finally have an answer that doesn’t involve rescuing small adorable animals from trees, saving grandmothers from having to walk across streets unattended, and/or not learning to ride a bike until I was 12 (<– no judging). And  does  involve almond flour that won’t sift, ovens that probably run too hot (not that we would know because we don’t own an oven thermometer), and many many many (many) egg whites. (But really. So many.) “My road to perfect macarons was littered with cracked shells, footless cookies, and broken dreams”, I will say. But the good news is, this story is a comedy. Meaning: happy endings (and cinnamon sugar macs) for all! My peanut butter and jelly macarons, though...
