Things to Write Home About – March 1

  • Amanda at kiddio posted suggestions for fostering kids’ independence

  • Jenn from Jenn Cooks posted a recipe for pizza soup
  • Lorraine at Not Quite Nigella made a gorgeous version of the chocolate valentino cake that all of the Daring Bakers (including me!) made in February
