After tea at Starbucks with a family friend, we walk over to Friday’s for dinner. We’re standing outside waiting to be seated.
Maitre d’: Smoking or non-smoking?
Me: Non.
Skye (my 13 year old): Why do they always ask ’smoking or non-smoking’? When they see kids, shouldn’t they instantly think non-smoking 
?
I hope that the maitre d’ was still within earshot when she said that! Smart girl.
Following you now from MBC.
It’s so true! It’s so weird (for me) to even think of restaurants with smoking sections – all the restaurants in my area are now designated non-smoking.
Following you from MBC!

Thanks for stopping by. I tried to leave a comment on your blog but there’s no option for name/URL.
You have one smart teenager! Sadly, too many parents smoke around their little ones. My father in law thought nothing of smoking around a baby. He tried it once with my baby and I put a stop to it. However, he was offended..HE was a offended..and didn’t talk to us for awhile. I didn’t miss him. LOL.
hahahhahaa…she’s smart. Sadly, some ppl just continue to smoke eventhough there are kids with them
I know – you’d think it would be obvious! Obvious to everyone but the ’smoking’ parents out there . . .
What a fun place, can’t wait to return!

Sadly no – I see moms carrying an infant in one hand and a cigarette in the other. I’d like to slap them.
Here in Pennsylvania we have the smoking ban in almost all restaurants. I love it!
I found your blog on MBC.
@all the moms from MBC
Great to have you guys.

My DD would have said the same thing. I always tell her, “well some people do smoke around their children and it’s not my place to tell them it’s wrong just because I don’t believe in smoking around my children & filling their lungs with second hand smoke”… I think in NH now there are no more “smoking or non-smoking” sections but I could be wrong, been so long since I’ve been out to eat and I sit in non-smoking no matter what so I probably wouldn’t even notice.
