Roast fingers of butternut squash and sweet potato (mostly squished, not much eaten)

Steamed carrot and broccoli a few days later had a bit more success.

SilveryMoon · 30/05/2010 20:38

ProfessorLaytonIsMyLoveSlave · 02/06/2010 23:41

Um... actually, some of DH's ice cream (he had the ice cream in one hand, DD in the other arm, and wasn't in time to do anything about her open-mouthed lunge...). But the first thing she ate that she was given was broccoli, I think.

mcflumpy · 04/06/2010 05:43

Banana - not mashed.

ILoveDolly · 11/06/2010 22:27

I am informed by Granny that the first thing I ate was an After Eight mint - fed to me by my naughty granny
