Food Diary (cont)

So Day One had gone well - Baby Bean had eaten a noticeable amount of food and I was feeling positive.

Then Day Two dawned.....

Breakfast (at home) - some blueberries and grapes, a quarter cup of milky cereal..... then the shrieking began so we stopped and went to play.

Mid-morning, because breakfast had been small, she had a few multigrain hearts as a snack. Perhaps a mistake, as lunch was all of a nibble on a tuna sandwich! Oh, plus LOTS of breastmilk!!

Dinner (at home) - 2 strips of chicken, a couple of green beans, 2 heaped dessert spoons of rice and red thai coconut curry sauce, and a bit of banana.

So something of a Mixed Food Day, although we do have another factor at play at lunchtime - I have started the SureStart Family Nurturing course and so Bean goes to the centre's crèche for a couple of hours. That was where she "ate" her lunch and I think, on the weighing scales of "Eating" vs "Exploring", the latter may just have won out. :-)

Still, at least dinner went well! I don't have any photos from that day to share I'm afraid, but instead I will plug a product - Organix "Cook with" red and green thai paste pots. They are really quick and easy and are basically like stir in sauces that are suitable for babies! We make ours with creamed coconut and they are so yummy I intend to keep using them long after Bean has grown up. I may need to borrow a baby to keep shopping in that aisle though......

Check out the paste pots here, as well as the other ones they do
