• 2 oz tofu

1. Cook the cod and tofu with just enough water
2. Steam the broccoli and french beans (or just cook it together with fish and tofu)
3. When everything is cooked, vegies are tender, just mix with the rice

~ it's so easy to just mix everything together, rather than serving it separately

~ why? coz PIL already has to quickly feed her during lunchtime. LO is too busy to waste much time at the dining table - so many places to go, so many things to touch and feel! Different when parents are home though.

Great, no allergies to Heinz Stage 1. She slept well last night, we did bring her fav blankie (3 in fact). And she had normal poop today after stopping the olive spread (remember: soy lecithin) since Saturday. 3 days to flush it out of the system. Funny thing though, there are yellow and black soya bean in the multigrain bread.

Breakfast:

• 3 oz watermelon 
• 1 slice of multigrain bread
• Heinz apple/mango puree- used as jam

Lunch:

• 3 oz broccoli
• 3 oz watermelon
• garlic bread/ pizza crust (Pizza Hut)- due to technical glitch, did not bring her carbo

Dinner:

• 1 oz chicken
• 3 oz calrose rice
• 5 oz watermelon

DH&I had 'nasi kerabu', 'nasi dagang', 'nasi minyak' for breakfast. Had Pizza Hut for lunch (couldn't find a sushi joint). Had 'mee celup' and 'mee goreng' for tea. Dinner was 'nasi goreng USA', 'nasi goreng daging merah' and 'sup tulang' for dinner. We have 'keropok lekor' and 'jagung bakar' for supper- but I think I'll skip...too full as it is.

Arianna is only 11 months old, and totally on homemade food. I was thinking real hard on how to feed her. Here's what we brought:

• rice cooker (the super duper small one- made for Japanese market)
• toaster
• multigrain bread
• calrose rice
• spiral pasta-can be cooked in the rice cooker
• broccoli (cooked)
• chicken (cooked)
• snapper (cooked)
• spiral pasta (cooked)
• watermelon (diced)

She ate 1.5 slice of bread for tea time... not bad considering she only eats 1 slice for breakfast. And she only had 1 slice of chicken sandwich for lunch before the journey.

She ate heartily for dinner, for once! She had pasta, snapper, broccoli, watermelon, and Heinz apple/mango puree-as her dessert. This was stage 1 food that I never used, ever! Let's hope she doesn't develop any allergic reaction to it.
