Two kinds of cold turkey

My New Year’s resolution (one of several; I’m an enthusiastic participant) is to stop smoking. This might surprise some of you who didn’t know I’ve been smoking for about 10 years — but probably fewer than I suspect. So far so good on that front, but this is not the cold turkey that concerns me.

At his 18-month checkup, Brij’s doctor informed his shocked mother that it was really quite inappropriate for a child his age to be drinking 32 ounces of whole milk a day. So, my darling son is will find himself sans bottle tomorrow. Pray for us.
