High-Chair Replacement Covers

One of my good friends gave my husband and I her children's high chair once her youngest outgrew it. And it has been great not having to buy one ourselves.

However, my daughter is the third child to use it, and because babies can be messy, its cover has been washed a few too many times.

I had hoped I could find a replacement cover on the manufacturer's website or somewhere else online, but the best I could do was order a handmade one on Etsy. The sellers charge a little more than I'd like to pay, but it would still be cheaper than buying a whole new chair. (One of the Etsy sellers, though, has hers priced high enough that I'd buy a new chair before I'd pay that much for just the cover. Don't get me wrong, I know how much work goes into handmade items and her covers are adorable and worth the money, but for someone in my financial situation, high chair covers are functional, not fashion statements.)

thredUP

Yesterday, I heard about a site called thredUP . Through this site, you can buy used clothes for your growing child from other parents, and sell the ones your child has outgrown. As quickly as our little girl goes through clothes at this stage, I think this sounds like a great idea. I'm constantly pulling clothes my daughter has outgrown out of her closet, and I feel like she's forever running out of clothes that fit her. I plan to look into it a little more, and I just might give it a try.

Frozen Dinner Thoughts

I've been trying to give some thought to what kinds of foods would make good homemade frozen dinners.  (My first post on the topic is here .) Tomorrow is grocery day, so I'd like to have an idea what kinds of things I can make to make sure I have all the ingredients. So far, I'm planning stew (per my husband's request) and a crustless cheeseburger quiche. Hopefully, I can think of another seven options between today and tomorrow.

TV Time

I'm still looking for a lighter TV , but I hope to buy one within the next couple of weeks. I don't like that so many that I see come with only a yearlong warranty. I don't trust that. Odds are -- based on the reviews of the ones I've seen -- the TV will outlast the warranty, but I just dislike the idea of shelling out $300 or $400 for something that the manufacturer has only a year's worth of confidence in. Based on what I've found in researching TVs, though, I'm probably not going to get a better warranty than that, so I'll likely just have to suck it up.
