Katy Killilea lives in Barrington with her husband, their sons (2001 + 2003), and a dog named Grover. Katy loves reading, cooking, loud pants, the Beehive in Bristol, and learning everything she can about Type 1 diabetes and celiac disease. She says more about that at Bigfoot Child Have Diabetes.
Having spent most of 2014 elbow-deep in gluten free cookbooks, Nicole Spiridakis‘s Flourless is a bright surprise. Most GF cookbooks fall into one of two categories: those using nutritionally bleak wheat flour substitutes (like tapioca and potato starches or xanthan gum) and those emphasizing nutrition over fabulousness. Flourless is different. The desserts in Flourless are […]
One of my kids was diagnosed with celiac disease this year. Immediately following his diagnosis, I fell victim to celiac’s often unrecognized sister syndrome, Reading Too Many Gluten Free Magazines. Now only five worry-free foods remain in my world. Two of these grow in our yard: strawberries and kale. Nothing to worry about there except […]
A few months ago, celiac disease shoved my family out of the GLUTEN FREE = GOSH, THAT SEEMS LIKE A TOTAL DRAG group, and into the GLUTEN FREE = US group. In general, it has been much less harrowing to eat food prepared at home. However, I’ve gathered the courage to take my child out […]
Recently my family got really into a card game: Anomia. And I got kind of evangelical about it. It’s easy to carry, so I brought it in my bag whenever we were invited somewhere, just in case I might find players. I have played this game with adults, schoolchildren, and college students. Everyone* loves this […]
Heading to the Farmer’s Market with kids is fun, sure, but sometimes the little chickens could use a kick of extra motivation.

Joy to the world, soup season is back! Served with bread, fruit, and cheese, soups are my favorite dinners—both for cooking and eating. Bonus: most (i.e. my) children like soup. And this: you might get a few good lunches out of the leftovers. Also: the price is right. Also: you can make soup well in advance, and come home from the cross-country meet/soccer game/football practice to dive into dinner and feel cozy, even if your legs are still muddy. Also: these dinners make your house smell fantastic.
I realize I’m kind of advanced in my motherhood journey to be excited about my kids eating vegetables—they’re 11 and 9. Shouldn’t they be eating everything by now, without fanfare? Yet I still feel hugely relieved when I see vegetation going into their bodies. That’s why I am evangelical about these soups. These are the two soups I’ll be making all season long.
I haven’t been this excited about a board book since—ever. Hippopposites is the international literary debut of French designer Janik Coat, and brings heretofore unseen sophistication and graphic punch to that esteemed genre: opposites books.
Using one red, square-ish, cankled hippo to illustrate pair after pair of opposites, Coat has created a book that’s enchanting for the eyes and fun to read.
