I was also told that if I drank coffee, I wouldn’t grow. My parents were great coffee drinkers, so the coffeepot was always going. As a child, I was given a cup with a bit of coffee, but it was mostly milk or cream. I grew up to be 5 feet, 6 inches tall anyway.We like fresh salad dressing made with garlic- and rosemary-infused extra virgin olive oil and red wine vinegar. I have found that the perfect vessel for this dressing is an emptied spice shaker jar.

I’m a dedicated reader who has followed your mother’s column from Washington, California and now in Texas. -- B.J.D., via emailMy puppy, Tatum, is 7 months old and enjoys the snow here in Dover, Delaware. She loves everyone and the pets she sees. She loves to give kisses. But here she is catching snowflakes on her tongue. She is my baby. -- Susan Fellows, via emailIf you purchase a product or register for an account through a link on our site, we may receive compensation.
