Epicurean

Logan enjoys quite a wide variety of foods. Today for breakfast he had a cube of apples, pears, and rutabaga. Rutabaga? Yup. Logan is not all that fond of it, but if you disguise it with other food he'll eat it (with a suspicious look on his face.) I had never tried it before either. But I bought one at the store, steamed it, chopped it up in the food processor and froze it in our cool new silicon ice cube trays. Our freezer is jam packed with all sorts of baby food cubes...so much in fact that we are contemplating getting one of those basement freezers. We've got peas and carrots and lentils and butternut squash and a few other things in there.

For lunch, Logan has a cube of butternut squash and lentils (and he finished off his yogurt). He loves lentils, which is good because they are a good source of protein. Most of what Logan loves is sweet stuff like fruit, or interesting texture stuff like toast. Well, that's about it for today folks. Logan is no longer interested in sitting in his high chair and has lost interest in his graduate puffs. Later.

Mmm, delicious possibilities.
