thanks, ohdeedoh!

I got a great shout-out from one of my favorite blogs for children and home design, Ohdeedoh.  I'm so excited to be included.  More than a year later, I'm happy to report that my fabric panels are still intact and holding strong.  Of course, this could all change the second that the Gravy Baby learns how to climb over his crib and wreak havoc in his nursery.

Although our Asian adventures are over for now, we're excited to take on the US by storm (as soon as I finish this pesky bar exam business).  I've been added to the Travel Blogs network, which you can visit here.  They've also written about me in a far more flattering light than I could ever muster.  Check out their other blogs and stories about travel when you get a chance. 

20 best for babble.com

The new parenting website Babble.com asked me to name the top 20 travel gear items for 2011.  My picks are here; spread the word!

(PS - when we travel, we travel with WAY more than 20 baby items.)

While I'm otherwise predisposed for the next couple of weeks, might I interest you in one of my sister's blogs?  One has been doing very important, world-saving stuff for a few years; the other is rescuing a house from near-death.

We keep busy in our Gang of Three.

Expat Arrivals recently interviewed me about living abroad in Malaysia.  They also asked me to write a companion piece about what it was like to have a baby in Kuala Lumpur.  I haven't ever talked about that here on Gravy Train because I figure you come here looking for snacks, but here it is, just in case you're wondering.
