We’re eating our way through the rainbow one cookie at a time! Zelda had so much fun eating these Mini Rainbow Cookies, and Spiro had even more fun managing her sugar high after I left for an EDO dinner (see below).  To store these tasty little treats we recycled our XO, G wine bottles (obsessed) and Zelda loved all of the bright colors. What sweet treat makes your little babe go crazy?

Last week I had a company dinner and Spiro (baby daddy) was left alone with Zelda to fend for himself. Before I left Zelda insisted on having a cookie, which I typically would not give her in the evening, but jokingly I handed one over to her and said, “It’s okay, mom is leaving, you’ll be with dad for the evening.” An hour later I received the text below. Little did Spiro know, I gave Zelda the “cocaine.”
