Big(ish) News

Well, this may have been oversold, and it is approx. a week late, but the most exciting news for us recently is that Bluet has started eating real food! When I say real food, her first meal (captured for your delectation below) was some rather unappetising (but recommended by the paediatrician) rice cereal.

However, this foodstuff proved unappealing to her refined taste buds, so we have since moved onto sweet potato. Which has gone down a treat (and even replaced milk for lunch one time). We plan on adding ordinary potato this weekend. At this rate of adding new foods, she should be eating fois gras by Christmas.



BTW if you would like to eat along at home with Bluet, here is the recipe for Bluet's Sweet Potato.

You will need:

Some sweet potatoes
A pan
Some water
A stove

Put pan of water on stove. Heat until boiling. Add Sweet Potatoes. Boil until cooked. Puree with a hand held blender, allow to cool and serve with a plastic spoon. Aeroplane noises are optional (but recommended).
