Purple cauliflower and little one's first foods.

No recipes, just some fun.

My grocery store had purple cauliflower last week! Of course I picked it up! They also had green and orange. I’m not sure how they get these great colors (I will investigate this further) but I am convinced that since it’s so colorful it must have extra vitamins and other good stuff that plain old white cauliflower doesn’t have. I am sad to report that I cannot tell you about the flavor as my sense of taste is still missing. It’s almost back though!



Little one lovin' the avacado!



Little one is exploring his first foods. We have been successful with oatmeal, sweet potatoes, bananas, avocado, potatoes and applesauce. I also like to give him small tastes (tip of the finger’s worth) of what I am eating. He has fun holding on to stalks of celery and using them to teethe. He sucked on some ice cubes, the one’s with the hole in the middle that I can wear as a ring, on a recent flight and had a ball sucking on a sliver of tomato. I purchased the Beaba Babycook and I can’t wait to use it! I know, I don’t need anything special to make his food, but it was an excuse to purchase a kitchen toy! My plan is to make his food for him and avoid prepackaged food for him as much as possible.
