kitty did you see the "banana hell devil cock" thread? I hate bananas, it's the texture and the smell. And if I eat the they have to be perfect and no bruises, stringy bits etc.

Help I have a rolling escape artist. I left ds on the change mat to go medicate dd2, and when I came back he was the other side of the room (granted only 1.3metred) and covered in dog hairs

No frus but I'd imagine I'd fit right in, bananas are the devils work, I can't even sit next to someone eating one as I hate the smell, all things banana really but didn't want to pass food issues onto dd's
How is he rolling allready?? Dd2 is a mean crawler though ( in the army mans slithery way!)

kittykatsforever · 22/09/2013 20:09

Just making stock as had roast dinner today, never tried before, it said to add parsnips and celery which I don't have but I've added carrots and onion to the carcass and water, any herbs or anything ( dried obviously) I should add to make it more flavourable as I can't add salt, what about pepper?

FrussoHathor · 22/09/2013 20:18

Not had slithery crawling yet. Just the odd toes pushing and then flipping over. Dd1 never crawled, and only rolled once, she just got up and walked. I can't remember dd2 moving at all
I don't know how he's doing it already, he only does it when I'm not watching.

kitty a few peppercorns & some herbs would be good - maybe parsley, thyme or sage? I rarely make chicken stock because I hate boney chicken so only very occasionally buy a whole one to roast. I'm always saving vegetable peelings in the freezer to make veg stock though.

kittykatsforever · 22/09/2013 21:02

Thanks Agnu, I knew you or bring would have the answer Grin
It did say to add parsley but fresh which I don't have, we rarely have chicken because I usually make it for 6 adults and 3 kids so I get a big beef joint, I just felt as it was there and I'm weening I didn't want to waste it

FrussoHathor · 23/09/2013 02:02

peardrop2 · 23/09/2013 06:39

Ifh? What's that?

By then the end of the day baby pear had done 5 solid poos Shock He slept from 9:30 to 4am so he clearly had something going on in his digestive system the previous nights cos we've had some bad sleepless nights!

FrussoHathor · 23/09/2013 07:39

Ifh is random letters. In my sleep deprived state I think I was going for ugh
Strangely dd2 are both up and dressed and ready for school with an hour to spare.

Interesting blog post about BLW here - apparently food isn't 'just for fun until they're one'... & we should be weaning on meat, not fruit/veg...! Hmm

FrussoHathor · 23/09/2013 13:52

There's always someone to say we're wrong and make parents feel guilty.

FrussoHathor · 23/09/2013 14:57

Anyone know where my day has gone? It's school run time already.Shock

FrussoHathor · 23/09/2013 16:06

Well in that case baby frus can have beef and sweet potato mush. Hmm trouble is my blender doesn't purée meat.
He had a spoonful of avocado earlier when I was making it. I may also have had a few spoonfuls

How is it that I've become an expert at playing Disney's Planes on the Wii? The boys absolutely suck at this thing and I've been the one playing it for the past 3 days while they sit on the floor and keep trying to tell me how to play (then get upset when I say "well, if you know it all, here you go!" and hand them the remote) Hmm Stupid, stupid, stupid.

Blast cold still raging my poor head.

I'm sorry you were up all night frus Sad

FrussoHathor · 23/09/2013 16:43

That's so funny bring it's the other way around in my house, I generally suck at all wii games.

Beef, sweet potato and spinach mush actually tastes quite nice. Non nom nom lets hope baby frus like it. if not I'll eat it

OP posts:
FrussoHathor · 23/09/2013 17:45

Hmm, note to self - if going for avocado and sweet potato mix, you need a lot more avocado than sweet potato or you really can't taste the avocado. How odd that sweet potato is such an over powering taste.

OP posts:
kittykatsforever · 23/09/2013 18:38

Did you try abit of cinnamon in it frus?
I just tried baby kitten with fruit ( Ella's kitchen to be precise, my god it's like baby crack! I remember dd1 used to love it aswel)

bringonthetrumpets · 23/09/2013 18:47

Haha, I suck too! The game is super hard and I keep crashing into stuff {good lord, why on earth am I talking about a wii game for 5 year olds.....} but I don't suck as much as they do, so apparently I'm fun to watch and tell how to play

Beef, sp, and spinach sounds like a fantastic dinner! Lucky little guy.

FrussoHathor · 23/09/2013 19:14

No I forgot kitty - what does the cinnamon go in again?

bring he had sweet potato and avocado for tea. I'm just making loads of pouches of sweet and savoury things breastmilk storage bags and freezing them off.

And I managed to express 4oz today too. But only because I was majorly leaking. And for some reason baby frus isn't liking that side today. He's only had that side once today. I wonder what's up with it? Maybe he doesn't like te forceful letdown that it seems to have today?

OP posts:
kittykatsforever · 23/09/2013 20:00

Sweet pot and cinnamon frus.
I must say avocado and sweet pot sounds a little blur though, was it nice??
