The Condiment Food Group
For breakfast, she had 2 potato chips she found umm, somewhere.
For lunch, she had half a tortilla with melted butter and cinnamon.
For a snack, she smelled a banana and licked the peel.
This is what she had for dinner...
Yep, that's a straw in the empty ketchup bottle. Forget the burger, hold the bun, no cheese please. I'll just take the condiments thankyouverymuch.
Mmmm ketchup.
I remember stressing over stuff like this when I had 1 or 2 kids. Will they get sick if all they eat is ketchup and banana fumes? Should I call the doctor? How can I get them to eat a balanced diet? Somewhere along the line, however, my attitude changed. You want to go all day and eat nothing but a piece of cheese, 2 grapes (with no skin, of course), a teaspoon of milk and a cotton ball? Knock yourself out. Less cooking for me.

Hmmm, that sounds somewhat familiar. Glad you aren't stressing over it either.
Today's lunch for Little Miss? Half an avocado and a single cherry tomato. Of course the fact that this is all she wanted to eat (turning down spaghetti, Mac & Cheese, turkey, and ham) and it's all vegetable is actually a bit MORE concerning to me!

LOL!!! OMG I'm so much less anal now and I'm only on my third kid! By the sixth I'll probably be letting the cats raise him/her!
By the way, did you always know you wanted tons of kids?

Isn't it funny how relaxed we get about stuff the more kids we have. Last year, when I was eight months pregnant with my forth child, I went to a birthday party with my four year old and two two year olds.(they are twins this isn't a typo) All of the other moms there had only one child or one child and an infant. I laughed to myself and wondered what they thought of me as I watched my children with cake smeared all over their faces and everything else and watched them wipe their child's mouth after every bite. I could go on and on about things like this where I have really loosened up out of sheer necessity. A friend recently asked me about potty training methods and honestly my plan is simple - get them out of diapers before kindergarten. Love your blog and check it often. Should be keeping one of my own but I'm afraid someone would actually read it.

That's hysterical. Thank you for letting me know. I am on kid #1 and sometimes she doesn't want to eat. She's only 11 months old, so I have a ways to go before the condiment thing, but still...knowing is half the battle.

Ooh, yeah - I've gone from making whole wheat chocolate chip cookies for my first two to feeding my toddler (#6)marshmallows just to keep her quiet.
- September 9, 2008 at 10:25 PM
My two year old goes by the same diet. I think she could go three days without really eating anything. Yet the next day she doesn't do anything except eat.
Cute pony tails!!!!!
- September 9, 2008 at 10:32 PM
I'm glad my dd isn't the only one that eats like that. Breakfast today was melted butter licked off her toast, snack was 2 goldfish cracker heads - she refuses to eat the tails. Lunch @ preschool was a bite of a sandwich,yes - one (1) bite. and dinner was a frozen pierogi.
If I could get the rest of my family to eat the same way, my grocery bill would only be like $10/month!

I used to fret about this kind of stuff, too, but then I figured they'll get what their bodies need; i.e. when they get hungry enough, they'll eat! Brooklyn seems healthy enough - I wouldn't worry. She's obviously good on licopene!
- September 9, 2008 at 11:13 PM
Thanks! I've been worrying over my daughter's diet. (My first) All she wants to eat is cinnamon raisin bagels and cheese! Now I realize she's in good company.

Thank you for posting that! My son is almost 2 and my husband and I have been arguing about his diet for a week now. I am so happy to see that it's a normal toddler thing. Now if only I could get my husband to listen to me when I tell him that...

AMEN SISTER! Less for you to cook... and less for you to throw out! For those of you with 1 kid or just pregnant: I thought the same thing you are thinking THEN. It is what it is!!

OMG... That is too funny. My husband needs to see this... I accuse him of having food with his ketchup. But I can relate to the tortilla with butter and cinnamon.... mmmmmmm..... I add a little sugar to mine tho......

- Jennifer said...
This is totally cracking me up, only because I could totally see my daughter doing this! She loves condiments - ketchup, sour cream, salad dressing...by themselves. She has always just dipped her finger in. I tried to stop her from doing it in the beginning. Then I decided it was a losing battle not worth the fight. So I just don't make a big deal about it. I'm so glad mine isn't the only one who does this!

I would be so happy if my 3 year old would eat that much!
He won't eat ketchup because he's on some sort of a diet where he only eats food with bland colors (milk, bread, spaghetti noodles, chips)
Except for Cheetos. He loves Cheetos.
- September 10, 2008 at 12:59 AM
I had a doctor tell me that no child had ever starved themselves to death and they would eat when they got hungry enough. As long as they weren't losing weight, he didn't care what they ate or how much or when. It made my life much easier!!

We go in spurts here, mostly led by my older one. Currently it's pasta with butter, eggs, and pepperoni sandwiches. I developed a "whatever" approach a LONG time ago. You tend to do that with a kid who has OCD tendencies about food and weird texture issues. When my oldest was 4 he decided one day he just was not going to eat melted cheese. No matter that pizza and grilled cheese had been his favorite foods up until that point. That lasted almost a year. I think that's the weirdest food refusal so far - no melted cheese.

When my husband is deployed I don't usually cook. There's plenty of mac and cheese, peanut butter, fresh fruits and veggies to keep us going for the time that he's gone. There's just to much to do to cook a full meal every night! On a particularly bad night (missing my husband, church function, packing for yet ANOTHER move) I let the kids have cookies for dinner. Of course as they were finishing up the door bell rang. It was a very good friend who had just had her first baby. She gave me that look that says, "How on earth can you feed your precious babies cookies for dinner!?" Little does she know that there WILL be one day when cookies seem like a completely viable choice for dinner.

Dawn - you have 18 kids or so, so this is more for your commenters:
When I was little (I'm 47 now) my mom didn't have a pediatrician - we had a family GP. Mom was worried 'cause all I wanted to eat was hot dogs: for breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks. No buns, no condiments, no french fries - nothin' but dogs!
Dr. O. said, "Go ahead and feed her hot dogs. She'll eat them for a few days and then she'll want something else." And I did.
And then when I was, oh, 25 or so, I went to my mom's cardiologist (we used him as a GP) and he told me to trust my body: when I needed some Vitamin C, I'd eat an orange. When I needed some Vitamin D I'd drink a glass of milk. If I had an upset stomach and craved something weird, like peanut butter and raisins on multi-grain, the odds were that it wouldn't make me sick: my body wouldn't crave it if I couldn't handle it.
I've lived by those words and it's done me well!

I LIKE your attitude!!

When my oldest who is now 23 was about Brooklyn's age she loved to go to McDonald's. She just dipped her fries in ketchup and sucked it off and then dipped it again. She didn't eat the fries.
- September 10, 2008 at 7:25 AM
I LOVE your blog and have been reading for awhile but this is my first comment ... I was so glad to read this post. I only have ONE child and this eating thing is by far the most stressful part of being a mom (okay, maybe not the most stressful, but it is a daily struggle :-)). My son (2 1/2 yrs. old) eats buttered noodles and ... well, that's about it. I TRY to give him balanced meals but he refuses to eat it. I have recently just gave up and decided that if he is hungry he will eat. It is good to know that there are others out there like him -- and they have survived :-) Thanks for the daily laughs!!!

Does she at least balance it out with some Mayo and mustard, perhaps the occasional jar of relish?

Thanks for posting this - I feel much better, knowing that I'm not the only mom out there whose toddler thinks that condiments are appropriate substitutes for actual food. We had Chinese food the other night, and after Pete finished his Peking Ravioli (aka Potstickers, depending on your region), he demanded more sauce. Not more ravioli, JUST the sauce, which he proceded to drink from his bowl. Yarghh.

Thanks for the advice, I only have one and worry she's not getting enough when she eats a cracker and a sliver of a banana all day.

Ketchup counts as a vegetable, right?

My mil tells me that my bil lived on ketchup sandwiches as a kid. (He's the baby of the family--coincidence?) He's now 6' 3", so apparently it didn't hurt him any.
- September 10, 2008 at 8:28 AM
I just try to remember that it takes a toddler 45 days to starve to death!!!
A couple of days a week on melted butter & ketchup won't do them any harm, especially with the scavenged potato chips thrown in!!!

Yes, we became less protective with each daughter.
Drop the pacifier...
First daughter - sterlized the living daylights out of the thing.
Second daughter - carefully wash it off in the sink.
Third daughter - brush that puppy off on your sleeve and plop it back into her mouth
Who knows what we would have done if there were six!
Sixth daughter - "You dropped it, you get it!"

Brooklyn and my daughter are the exact same child!
The tantrums, the stubborness and now the eating of ketchup for dinner.
My daughter is my first and I have already given up. If she wants to spoon globs of ketchup in her mouth for dinner, who am I to stop her?
- September 10, 2008 at 8:53 AM
as an avid reader i remember this post from last year almost exactly the same. except this time there are pics. i bet your frustrated that her eating habits havent changed

this is my first time here. and whether or not this post was from last year...it doesn't matter...
because i just threw up in my mouth. ketchup from a straw...
that's as gross as watching a cat throw up a fur ball!
good luck. i guess i should be thankful that my kids will at least eat something with their copious amounts of ketchup!!
- September 10, 2008 at 9:45 AM
Hi Dawn, I bet there is a chapter in your book on picky eaters. What do you think about the moms who cook seperate meals for each kid? I have a few girlfriends that do that and when their kids( now 11 yr olds) are here they hardly eat anything. I say oh well, eat it or go home hungry. My son has always ate whatever I made for dinner because I never catered to him. Kristine in Michigan.
- September 10, 2008 at 9:45 AM
You gotta love people like the comment above me. Nothing pisses me off more than a backhanded slap w/ a tone of "poor baby" in it. Whatever. I only have one kid and I've had many a day that I'm not sure what he ate, if he ate at all as he refused all good offers and settled for his own menu of well...who knows? So, the slacker mom in me doesn't need anymore kids to prove the point. I'm good...or I'm bad. Yeah, you get it.
- September 10, 2008 at 9:46 AM
My little sister ate only french fries and ketchup until she was 13. Then she added salad (but with lettuce and cheese only).

My 18 mth. old son is the same. Some days he will scarf down anything you put in front of him and somedays he just takes a bite or to. The thing that stresses me out the most is how much food is wasted. I will throw out whatever he doesn't eat, because if I ate all his refused food, I would be as big as a house!

My son eats ketchup on his apple slices, when he chooses to eat a "vegetable". Most of his meals are some form of cracker, something sweet, or some form of breakfast food. He's still growing, has plenty of energy, and doesn't get ill very often. He's either lucky, or giving his body what it needs, somehow. If the rest of us listened to our bodies better, we'd probably all be thin, energetic, and happier!

That`s so like my oldest, he`s the same age as Brooklyn and eats NOTHING. He asks for food, chews, spits it out and walks away. I guess he gets something out of the chewing . . .
Around here, we collect those fast food ketchup packets and both my toddlers will happily suck the ketchup out of those for lunch.

He he, I remember crying to our pediatrician because my oldest (then 2) only wanted to eat graham crackers and cheerios. His advice; "Don't fight it." And we don't. Food is set on the table, if they don't like it they don't have to eat it, just sit quietly at the table please. That would mean no whining, since getting any child to sit "quietly" at the table is a loosing battle.
- September 10, 2008 at 2:55 PM
This post made me laugh. I have a daughter who is now 6 that still has days like this (well not the sucking ketchup w/ a straw, but more the eating barely anything). Somehow she still grows - doesn't gain much weight - but grows and is healthy. Her brother is 9 and subsists on noodles and butter - has for years. Must work - he grew 2 inches this summer and is now 4'8".

Much like my son who lives on almost entirely a diet of crackers. If he eats what a 'normal' kid eats one day we figure that will be it for a couple of days aside from a few crackers!

That is great! I have 7 kids myself, and my #6 is a mad ketchup lover. We call it Baby Salsa, and he fills a bowl full and dips tortilla chips. We went thru a 24 oz bottle every three days for awhile there.

Hehehe love it! I lived on cracker sandwiches as a kid! I was a meat and potatoes kid and if my "okie" dad and mom put a pot of beans and cornbread on the table my response was EWWWWWWW!! When all of us kids were old enough we were told if we didnt like it we could a. do without or b. make something for ourselves, they werent short order cooks lol. And so, the cracker sandwich was born at about age 7. Two pieces of bread, four crackers, dash of pepper (very gourmet!), smoosh it and eat!
- September 10, 2008 at 6:34 PM
My 4 yr old is still this way. I don't remember the others being like that. I am afraid he might stay little forever if he doesn't soon start eating.
Loved the gingerbread story too.
Have a good one.

Dawn, your kids crack me up. At least I don't feel like I'm the only crazy one....and ONLY a parent with more than one kid can think this is an acceptable diet....I have a 4 year old and two 3 year olds....some days they LIKE mac & cheese, some days they DONT. Some days they WANT ketchup on their chicken nuggets, and some days, when I put it on there ... they freak out and tell me thier "chickens" are ruined! Oh how horrible of a mother I am! LOL!! I think toddlers age 2-4 must be like mini-teenagers .... they can never make up their dang minds! (Smile!!)
- September 10, 2008 at 7:02 PM
okay, she's WAY too clean to have been sucking on that ketchup bottle like that- where are the pics of it in her hair? Behind her ears? Crusted in the nostrils? Or do you just want pics of CADEN like that- maybe girls are cleaner??? haha

My parents were "old school". My twin and I were made to sit at the table until we finished every morsel on our plates--sometimes we'd sit there for hours! Their plan failed...I am still tall and extremely thin. Now I eat WHAT I want, WHEN I want. I do make my kids eat regular meals but if they aren't hungry or don't like it...that is fine, too!! Parents don't realize the bad memories they are making when they battle over food.
- September 10, 2008 at 8:47 PM
I have to keep the ketchup hidden, or one of my kids will drink it. (Shudder)
One would cheerfully live on nothing but peanut butter and jelly.

My 3rd would only eat pretzel sticks for awhile... not twists... just sticks they taste better...
& the 4th went on a butter kick... she ate a whole stick while sitting in the fridge on daddys watch & then requested spoonfulls of the stuff with every meal... WEIRD!!!

Ha! For my friend's birthday one year, she and I went to a restaurant with her then two-year old daughter. Being vegetarian, Liz [the mom] settled on grilled cheese for K. What does K proceed to do? Dip her fries repeatedly in the ketchup, suck the ketchup off, and dip them back in again for more. It took a lot of coaxing to get her to eat anything else that night.

LOL- I remember when I was little and we would eat supper at church on Wednesday nights. I never liked the food so I would eat cracker and butter sandwiches! Yes, we got weird looks but I still grew up perfectly healthy (and much skinnier than I am now... might be time for a change in diet...)

I didn't read all of the comments so pardon me if I'm repeating anyone.
All I can think of though is that movie "Big Daddy" where he asks the kid what he wants to eat and he goes "36 packets of ketchup!"
I think it was 36. That doesn't matter. The point is that all the kid practically ate was ketchup.

I can see why this particular blog received so many comments, I think all of us moms out there have that worry about feeding our kids.. especially us new ones with just one and not you veterans with 6 kids! Now n days there is so much pressure to raising our kids the 'right' way. I always tell myself that when my mom drove us 3 kids to McDonalds I'm sure she didn't feel or even think for a second that she was the worst mom in the world. Thanks for bringing to a lot of people's attention that we can relax some, enjoy more, and let them (and us) eat cake..or ketchup. Thank you.

TRhey were made to eat when it was meal time and finish everything. We feed the kids when they are hungry. If it is not a regular meal time, they eat a sandwich, leftovers, or some cereal. It works for me. I eat when I am hungry and stop when I am full.

Dr. Richard Allen Hill, D.V.M. passed away at his home in Ashland, Ore., March 22, 2013. Born in Klamath Falls, Ore., June 10, 1934, Richard married Joan, his high school sweetheart July 26, 1953.
After his mother's death from polio in 1952, Richard left college at Oregon State University to farm with his father Ralph. He later farmed and ranched in Bonanza before he, Joan and the kids moved to Pullman, Wash. where Richard completed his doctor of veterinary medicine in 1969. After practicing a year in Hillsboro, Ore., Richard and family moved to Ashland where he practiced until his retirement in 2006. He treated animals large and small, wild and domestic, ostriches and emus.
An avid sportsman and conservationist, Richard hunted, fished, hiked, rafted, and canoed throughout Oregon and the Northwest. In 2009 he joined his son's family and all of the grandchildren for another Bowron camping adventure in British Columbia. Richard loved following high school sports and particularly the Ashland Grizzlies, and recently the Miami Heat with his daughter, Lois.
He is survived by his wife, Joan Gail Hill, Ashland, Ore.; brother, Robert Hill, M.D., Bend, Ore.; sister, Jeannie Arant, Klamath Falls, Ore.; children, Lois Ruth Hill, Weston, Fla., Sharon K. Hill, Portland, Ore., and Russel Allen Hill and wife, Jody, Walla Walla, Wash.; grandchildren, Stephen Patrick Unger and Stephanie Joan Unger, Weston, Fla., and Ryan Anthony Hill and Miranda Jene Hill, Walla Walla, Wash.; as well as numerous aunts; uncles; nieces; nephews; and cousins. Daughter, Susan Beth, and parents, Ralph and Lois Hill precede him in death.
Memorial service will be at 11:00 a.m., Saturday, March 30, 2013, at Litwiller Funeral Home, 1811 Ashland St., Ashland, Ore., and will be officiated by his sister, Jeannie Arant, from Mt. Laki Presbyterian Church of Klamath Falls, Ore. A potluck open house will follow the service. In lieu of flowers, family encourages donations to the Ashland High School Booster Club in Richard's name, P.O. Box 121, Ashland, OR 97520.

Leavenworth officials plan to appeal a Federal Emergency Management Agency's decision to deny a grant for a flood protection wall behind the Riverfront Community Center.
Leavenworth officials plan to appeal a Federal Emergency Management Agency's decision to deny a grant for a flood protection wall behind the Riverfront Community Center.
The city received word March 13 that FEMA had denied the application for a concrete flood wall. There's a May 13 deadline for making an appeal.
"This has been a real tug of war," City Manager Scott Miller said Tuesday when city commissioners were briefed on the issue.
Miller said state officials have been supportive of the city's plans for a flood wall, which would be 3 feet tall and about 775 feet in length. But he doesn't feel FEMA has given the city a fair shake.
The grant application requested $389,332 in federal funds as part of the Hazard Mitigation Grant Program. This amount was based on a total cost of $519,410 for the project with the city providing a 25 percent match.
Paul Kramer, assistant city manager, said the application initially had to be submitted to the Kansas Division of Emergency Management. This was done in August 2011.
The application followed the second-worst flood on record for the Missouri River at Leavenworth. On June 30, 2011, the river crested at 30.8 feet. The river's flood stage at Leavenworth is 20 feet.
Once OK'd by the state, the application was forwarded to FEMA. Kramer said the application was sent to FEMA in January 2012.
The decision to deny the application came from a regional FEMA office in Kansas City, Mo. Kramer said the decision first will have to be appealed to that office. But the matter then can be appealed to FEMA's national headquarters.
Kramer said the application was denied primarily because some sandbagging would be required at the north and south ends of the wall during a flood and city officials would rely on temporary pumps instead of installing a permanent pump station.
The firm that has worked on the design of the wall estimates it would cost an additional $200,995 to address the issues raised by FEMA. There also would be an additional $9,000 fee for extra design work.
And there's apparently no guarantee the grant would be increased to help offset the additional cost.
According to Kramer, the Kansas Division of Emergency Management does not feel FEMA's denial was valid.
One of the issues raised by FEMA is a 10-feet gap between what would be the north end of the concrete flood wall and an existing limestone wall. Kramer said the city doesn't have drawings or engineering plans for the existing limestone wall that may be the same age as the Riverfront Community Center, which was built in 1888. Officials don't believe it would be prudent to connect the new flood wall to the existing wall.
Kramer said city officials can use sandbags to fill the gap between the two walls during a flood.
Another issue concerns how far the wall would extend on its south end. FEMA apparently wants the wall to extend farther than what was proposed, with it turning west at the south end of the Riverfront Community Center.
Kramer said one of the problems this would cause is the blocking of vehicle traffic to that area. He said city officials could put up sandbags at the south end of the wall if needed.
During Tuesday's City Commission meeting, Commissioner Larry Dedeke said FEMA officials apparently think the river will flood overnight.
Miller said the river rises slowly, allowing officials enough time to plan.
Commissioners supported appealing the FEMA decision.

SiriusXM All-Star Futures Game Rosters Announced
Rosters for the 15th annual SiriusXM All-Star Futures Game were announced today by Major League Baseball.
The Rays selections are RH Taylor Guerrieri and LH Enny Romero.
Rosters for the 15th annual SiriusXM All-Star Futures Game were announced today by Major League Baseball.
The Rays selections are RH Taylor Guerrieri and LH Enny Romero.
Romero was selected for the second time (also 2012), joining Desmond Jennings, Delmon Young and B.J. Upton as the only Rays to be named to the team twice. He is the first pitcher to do it.
The SiriusXM All-Star Futures Game, which is now in its 15th year, features the top Minor League prospects competing in a nine-inning contest as part of Taco Bell All-Star Sunday. The U.S. Team leads the all-time series, 8-6. The game will begin at 2:00 p.m. (EDT) and can be viewed live on ESPN2, ESPN2 HD and MLB.com.
SiriusXM, the Official Satellite Radio Partner of Major League Baseball, will provide live play-by-play coverage of the SiriusXM All-Star Futures Game on MLB Network Radio (XM channel 89; Sirius channel 209) in addition to SiriusXM's other comprehensive live coverage from New York. The game will also be available to SiriusXM subscribers on the SiriusXM Internet Radio App for smart phones and mobile devices and online at SiriusXM.com. Taco Bell All-Star Sunday is the first of three days of All-Star events at Citi Field, culminating with the 84th All-Star Game on Tuesday, July 16th.
Major League Baseball, in conjunction with the Major League Baseball Scouting Bureau, MLB.com, Baseball America and the 30 Major League Clubs, selected the 25 players currently on each team. Each Major League organization is represented and players from all full-season Minor Leagues were eligible to participate.
The teams feature 11 former first round draft picks (U.S. - 10; World - 1), eight players picked in Compensation Round A (all U.S.) and four second round picks (all U.S.). Among the 11 first round picks, six were selected in the 2011 Draft, three in the 2010 Draft and two in the 2012 Draft. The World Team features players from 10 different countries and territories outside the 50 United States. The Dominican Republic is represented by 13 players, followed by Colombia (2), Cuba (2) and Puerto Rico (2). Aruba, Brazil, Canada, Panama, Taiwan and Venezuela are each represented by one player on the World Team.
For the first time, fans will determine the final player on both the U.S. and World Team rosters by casting their votes in the All-Star Sunday Futures Finalists (#FuturesFinalists) ballot, available exclusively on MLB.com/futuresfinalists and the Club sites. Fans may begin voting immediately and cast their ballots until Sunday, June 30th at 11:59 p.m. (EDT).
The five candidates for the U.S. are: OF Tyler Austin (Trenton/NYY; #VoteAustin); OF Nick Castellanos (Toledo/DET; #VoteCastellanos); 3B Garin Cecchini (Portland/BOS; #VoteCecchini); OF Courtney Hawkins (Winston-Salem/CWS; #VoteHawkins); and OF Brandon Nimmo (Savannah/NYM; #VoteNimmo). The players vying for the final roster spot on the World Team are: SS Javier Baez (Dayton/CHI; Puerto Rico; #VoteBaez); 1B Ji-Man Choi (Jackson/SEA; South Korea; #VoteChoi); SS Carlos Correa (Quad Cities/HOU; Puerto Rico; #VoteCorrea); 3B Renato Nunez (Beloit/OAK; Venezuela; #VoteNunez); and 2B Rougned Odor (Myrtle Beach/TEX; Venezuela; #VoteOdor).
In addition to voting on the web, fans also may use their mobile phones to cast votes via text message. To receive the All-Star Sunday Futures Finalists ballot, text the word "VOTE" to 89269. Individual player votes may be cast directly via text by sending a player's code to 89269. For example, Text "U3" to vote for U.S. Team Player 3. Player codes are as follows: Austin (U1), Cecchini (U2), Castellanos (U3), Hawkins (U4), Nimmo (U5), Baez (W1), Choi (W2), Correa (W3), Nunez (W4) and Odor (W5). All votes are final. Standard rate text messaging fees apply (check with mobile carriers for details).
The SiriusXM All-Star Futures Game will last nine innings, and in the event of a tie, a 10th inning will be played. The game will not go longer than 10 innings, regardless of the score. Players and coaches will be outfitted in special SiriusXM All-Star Futures Game jerseys and will wear caps of their Major League organization with a SiriusXM All-Star Futures Game logo embroidered on the side.
The Minor League Baseball Umpires who will work the SiriusXM All-Star Futures Game are Pat Hoberg (home plate) of the Pacific Coast League, Gabe Morales (first base) of the International League, Ryan Goodman (second base) of the Southern League and Nic Lentz (third base) of the Eastern League.
Ninety-nine players have competed in both the SiriusXM All-Star Futures Game and the Major League Baseball All-Star Game. In 2012, 30 Major League All-Stars were alumni of the SiriusXM All-Star Futures Game. Nine players - Jose Altuve, Adam Dunn, Neftali Feliz, Jason Heyward, Bryce Harper, Francisco Liriano, Evan Longoria, Ben Sheets and Geovany Soto - appeared in the SiriusXM All-Star Futures Game and were named to the All-Star Game in the following season.

Hanover forfeits homecoming game over 'egregious' skits
By DOUG ALDEN
New Hampshire Union Leader
Hanover High School is forfeiting its homecoming game Friday night in response to "inappropriate" conduct by some players during a post-practice gathering last month.
Administrators announced the forfeit in a letter to parents this week, saying skits performed during the players-only celebration over the end of two-a-day practices violated the student code of conduct by objectifying women. The letter said many of the skits were sexually themed and "egregiously inappropriate."
Although that description could cover a wide range, district superintendent Frank Bass refused to elaborate Thursday on the players' conduct Aug. 24 when members of the team gathered at a home without coaches. Bass said administrators considered it serious enough to warrant a one-game suspension.
"It did not reach the level of hazing but certainly was something that we're not very proud of," Bass said.
Although not every player on the roster participated, enough members of the team were facing the sanction that Hanover could not field enough for a team tonight against the Kearsarge Cougars, leading to the forfeiture.
"Obviously, you don't want to punish students who had nothing to do with it," Bass said.
Athletic director Mike Jackson said a student went to a counselor with a complaint last week. Jackson also would not discuss specifics, referring questions to Bass, but said it was made clear to the players how they went wrong and why there will be no football game tonight.
"Of course they were not happy. They were very disappointed," Jackson said. "Obviously that was not the full content of the message we had for the players, but I think that will stick in their minds."
Bass said Principal Justin Campbell met with the student body by class for talks on what happened and how administrators came to the decision to discipline the players.
"He was swift and judicious in handling and turned into a learning opportunity for the entire school," Bass said. "Kids do make mistakes. We all make mistakes. Hopefully, we can all find a way to minimize the opportunity for poor decision making."
Although administrators did not consider the skits, performed by freshmen as directed by upperclassmen, to be hazing, state law requires schools and other organizations to report any possible instances to police. Jackson said the school followed procedure and reported the investigation to Hanover police
While the game was canceled, Jackson said homecoming festivities would be rescheduled for later in the season.

As you ladies know from a few posts back, there was a charity dinner at the Beverly Wilshire Hotel to help find a cure for Retinitis Pigmentosa (blindness), and receiving a Vision Award for the Film of Vision were the Twilight producers among many others, so quite a few celebs came out to help raise money; and I was so glad to be part of this amazing night. They were all so nice and just as gorgeous as they are on TV and in the movies.
They also had a silent auction and some of the items were a MAC gift box filled with goodies, and an OPI basket!
My friend Irina and I got there at 4, before the red carpet (the carpet wasn't red, LOL), Gil Birmingham (aka Billy Black in Twilight) arrived first, he was SO AMAZINGLY sweet and his hair was awesome! He was later joined by Billy Burke (Bella's dad Charlie) and his gf.
They had 5 or 6 Twilight posters on a table in the front- all to be signed by the cast and producers that showed up that night.
Christian Serratos (who plays Angela) arrived in a gorgeous fuchsia dress, she is SUPER cute! And incredibly kind and sweet. Miss Teen California Chelsea Gilligan is gorgeous in person but she was so nervous presenting an award, she kept stuttering and was obviously reading off the teleprompt, but nonetheless she looked great. Ashley Greene (my favorite cullen other than Edward who plays Alice) was by far my favorite of the night, not only did she LOOK amazing, she was the most sweetest celeb I have ever met. She was so friendly, she chatted with people, always smiling, and never hesitated to take a pic with a fan. Her skin is flawless ladies! Like the girl is just perfect! I was so happy to have met her because she is indeed a pleasure to meet, total sweetheart!
We also ran into fitness guru Jillian Michaels who has bigger arms than some of the guys I know and damn they are killer! She has such an amazing body and she too is so gorgeous in person! She was also very sweet and complimented me on my dress, and asked me if I was enjoying the show, she received an award as well and she deserved it! I gotta get on her fitness plan! LOL!
The crazy Bai Ling was there with one of her many outrageous outfits, her boobs were out there and the host was saying how her dress should be illegal in this country, LOL. She was nicely tanned though I must say!
Peter Facinelli was a no-show, he was supposed to be in attendance but apparently there was some miscommunication with the organizer and his publicist. So sad. :(
Taylor Lautner arrived really late, like right when everyone was having dinner, due to the press and paparazzi that were still around, they took him around to the back. He was with his parents and security and they did not allow any pics of him or with him unfortunately. But I did manage to take a pic when he presented the Twilight producers with their award- and yes all the females in the place were screaming, lol. Poor Taylor, but he is SOOOOOO cute, and pretty tall in person (for some reason I thought he was short because I always see him standing next to Rob and Rob is really tall!) All the gals were sad they couldn't take a pic with him (myself included) since my sister LOVES him, I would have loved a pic with him for her, but ah well. At least I can say I was in the same room as him HAHA.
Alison Sweeney from Days of Our Lives & Biggest Loser was there, her dress was super cute and she has an amazing post baby bod! I would have never guessed she had kids! She was also so sweet with her husband, and called him over to take pics with her on the red carpet. Her makeup and hair were so amazingly put together and I told her I loved her as "Sami Brady" and she laughed and said "Thank you", chatting with me for a bit she was really nice as well.
I took a pic with the infamous Larry King, he was nice when I took this pic with him, but according to my friend managing the show, he was a bit crabby shortly after and wanted to go home because he was bored, so he wanted his wife Shawn King to perform her snippet rendition of a few MoTown classics so they could leave. *Shrugs*
Taryn Manning from "Hustle & Flow" was also there (she performed her own song) with DJ Qualls (the guy from "The New Guy). And Bruce Davison was also there who played "Senator Kelly" from X-Men, he has been in a lot of other movies and TV Shows.
Anyway, here are a few pics, I will never forget this night, it was just surreal and amazing!
On the "red carpet":
Twilight auction items:
Signed by RPattz himself:
Me and Jacob's Dad! LOL. I have a surprised look in the 2nd pic, don't know why haha
With Bella's Dad! Doesn't he look so happy? He hasn't hit the bar yet that's why, LOL.
With one of the producers from Twilight, Wyck Godfrey:
Taylor Lautner presenting the award for Film of Vision to the Twilight producers:
Ashley and Billy autographing the Twilight posters for auction:
She really looks like Alice here, lol:
Larry King:

How lucky are you!!
I feel bad for Taylor, he can hardly go anywhere without people following him, kinda like Rob =\.
I love Ashley! She fits Alice perfectly. I'm happy she cut her hair, I think it fits her better. You're so lucky to had met her! I wouldnt assume that Bella's dad would be cocky. Too bad Peter wasnt there! He seems like a totally down to earth person! I would totally love to meet him too!

wow I'm sorry but Billy Burke looks kind of like a toolbag! But Gil Birmingham looks like a cool guy. Taylor is looking fine, of course, and you met Allison Sweeney!! I LOVE her!! Back in the day when I used to watch the soaps, I always thought she was pretty even though her character was not always the nicest...:)
It's so awesome that you got to be a part of that!
