In the Palm of Your Hand

I have a toddler.  She is a grazer.  I guess you might say she gets that from me (and my Mom) (and Miss Picky).

Needless to say, I have no clue as to how much she's really eating.

To make certain she's getting *close* to what she needs nutritionally, I've been trying to follow the "Hand Rules".
