Baby Food Ice Cubes
Much like I shared previously about expensive baby food containers being unnecessary, easy freezer storage doesn't have to be expensive either. I'm being very serious when I write that you only need basic ice cube trays, the kind you can find anywhere. Silicone ice cube trays are most popular right now, especially since some come … Continue reading Baby Food Ice Cubes

Baby Food Day 13- Butternut Squash!
It’s veggie time! As my babies who aren’t babies anymore like to tell me from watching PBS, colors mean more vitamins and minerals. (If only those delicious puffy cheese balls counted.) In addition to meeting Professor Fizzy’s color requirements, butternut squash has three excellent traits that make it high on my list of starter homemade … Continue reading Baby Food Day 13- Butternut Squash!
Every Day is Costume Day
Our local school district mandated masks in all its schools and offices last week and I’m grateful to the school board and the medical team assisting them for this choice. There are many people who disagree with this decision and have no hesitation vilifying all those involved in it. For those who believe this mandate … Continue reading Every Day is Costume Day
Baby Goes Nom Nom!
Now that Baby has tried solid foods for over a week and is used to the experience, it’s time to increase a little bit. I’m writing future meal plans using bananas and unsweetened applesauce in regular rotation, if not daily, for several reasons. First, parents are busy and practicality is necessary to retain any remaining … Continue reading Baby Goes Nom Nom!
Baby Food Day 9- Avocado!
I love avocados. I love avocado for myself and for its versatility and practicality. Like bananas, avocado has almost no preparation and can be eaten with just some smashing. They can both be opened, mashed inside their own skins, and served to Baby with a spoon. You don’t even need a bowl! Plus, many restaurants … Continue reading Baby Food Day 9- Avocado!
Mason Jar Magic
I’ve just started this blog, so I assure you- I have no sponsors. (Future sponsors, if you’re reading this, my agent, otherwise known as me, is quite happy to talk.) I do realize that Wal-mart has haters and with good reason. Amazon too and also for good reasons. Frankly, there really isn’t any company that … Continue reading Mason Jar Magic
Is there a doctor in the house? Nope.
I realize I haven’t shared any sources yet, and I want to make sure to give credit where it’s due. Sure, some of my data has been picked up through trial and error. That’s how I know that avocado is unbelievably hard to get out of clothes once it has dried on. You have been … Continue reading Is there a doctor in the house? Nope.
Baby Food Day 5- Apple!
I debated sharing about avocado today, because avocado is amazing. Guacamole anyone? But, learning to make baby food can be daunting, so I’ll discuss the glorious green fruit next time. Plus, you might need something easy to give a sitter! Unsweetened applesauce is usually less expensive than traditionally marketed baby foods and is just as … Continue reading Baby Food Day 5- Apple!
