Topie has this delightful habit of grabbing a handful of my hair and just hanging on to it like a baby monkey. It's a really good thing I'm not terribly tender-headed. Still, it isn't fun.

Also, her hand-eye coordination seems to be moving right along. She grabs at things, namely my plate, and my hand, and my HAIR.

Looking through my Thai cookbook, it was immediately clear to me that either corn starch or corn oil is used in every recipe, so that's probably what upset her when we ate at that Thai place earlier this week.

Heh. I wore my hair back in scrunchies for two years after Bit was born. There are very few pictures of me with it down. It took me a while to get used to wearing it down again, actually.

My hair was the first thing she ever pulled herself up into a sitting position with.

haha...last night i was sitting at the computer and she grabbed hair on both sides of my head, and I swear it was like she had reigns.

I remember reading somewhere a long time ago that in France they don't even eat corn, but only feed it to animals. Since then I've had a disdain for it in the back of my mind, and so avoid it anyway.

We used sesame oil for pad thai last night and it was just fine. I'm going to pick up some peanut oil next.

I use olive oil for everything. I rarely have any kind of other oil available. It might not be very authentic but you could try it instead or corn oil.

I tend to use olive oil most often. Jake, however, is an oil junky and has at least ten varieties on hand at any given time. Last night we used sesame.
