• Has anyone heard about Wonder opening on Spring Stuebner?

  If they are preparing food from multiple different restaurant concepts in a single kitchen space, cross contamination is going to be a huge concern. Anyone with severe milk or peanut allergies will need to call ahead and ask specific questions about shared fryers and prep lines before ordering. Shared kitchen formats can be very tricky for food allergies.

• Tuesday night dining out with kids where grown ups can actually enjoy the food?

  Just a note for anyone dealing with food allergies when dining out locally. Hat Creek on Spring Cypress has been very clear with us about their fryer procedures for dairy and gluten, though we always still double check with the manager on duty before ordering. Crust Pizza Co off Louetta is another one we use because they have a solid gluten-free crust option, but as always, please call ahead and inform your server if you have severe peanut or tree nut cross-contamination concerns.

• How did you choose your pediatrician (and when did you know it was time to switch?)

  We switched when my oldest turned one because the original clinic dismissed his skin symptoms as just mild dry skin and kept refusing to do a workup. I ended up having to push for a referral myself. If you ever feel like a provider is brushing off your concerns, that is your sign to get a second opinion. A good pediatrician listens to parent intuition and does not hesitate to collaborate with local specialists.
