Carla: Yeap, sugar in salt. It's weird. But it is not to keep it running, there is usually a silicate or starch added that does that (depends on the brand).

The Obligatory Blurb

My name is Andrea and I live in the Westboro area of Ottawa with my husband Mark and our two daughters Emma (11) and Sarah (9). I am a writer, web content manager, and family photographer. I've been blogging since 1999. I have a passion for words (on their own or strung together), the arts, healthy living, family travel, good food, and sharing the best of Ottawa for parents and kids. I also love vegetables, books, and great design. The Fishbowl is my whiteboard, water cooler, and journal ... all rolled into one. If you're so inclined you can read more about me here >>

My latest piece fo SavvyMom is about a place called 4Cats Art Studio that opened in Hintonburg recently. I had the chance to chat with owner and curator Emely Green about art, kids, brains, and the joys of making messes. I think you'd like her. She runs a great operation and it's worth checking out.

There's a great piece online at Newsweek.com by Claudia Kalb called “A is for Apple.” It's about a new Sesame Street initiative which has been designed to help lower-income families eat healthier on a budget. Some of it may surprise you.
