While shopping last night at Fresh Direct (an online grocer), I discovered they offer an Eating for Two section on their website. (Note: to see the list, enter the ZIP "10003" when asked for a ZIP code, then you'll be redirected to the proper page. Annoying, I know.)
The section is great. It breaks down stuff to purchase by pregnancy dietary requirements, like folic acid and calcium, and then shows you sources of those requirements in various products. With a simple click, they're in your shopping cart. What a nice way to relieve some of the burden of pregnant eating. If only I'd noticed this when I was pregnant.

Food traditions bind my family; I'm reminded of that every year when I drive to north-central Massachusetts to pick strawberries with my grandparents.
My mother swears by frozen fish. I was unconvinced, and decided to put her statements to the test: could flash-frozen fish taste as good as fresh local fish from the Greenmarket or even fresh fish from a local supermarket?
