I’ve been feeling a tad underproductive these past few weeks. Always meaning to blog, always meaning to take Georgie on a long drive somewhere nice, always meaning to do this, that and the other. Instead I choose to play the role of couch potato. I’m hoping this phase will be over. Soon. I hate going to bed telling myself that it will all get done tomorrow…
Food
They make me happy. They make me giddy. They make me want to dance and they make me feel pretty. Express how much you love brownies!
This has been a very good week regarding eating. There’s fresh summer produce at our local organic market on a regular basis and Georgie has been diving in. Stealing a cucumber or tomato, at said market, is now both acceptable and welcomed, so I’m happy. Here’s what’s been on the little dude’s menu over the past few days. Waffles, bought at Lidl, organic blueberry yoghurt and organic strawberries for breakfast. Organic fish fingers and tartare sauce. He wasn’t too keen on the tartare sauce but he did make a point of using it to cover his entire face, as usual. Cous cous with tomatoes and feta and tons of olive oil and lemon. Tofu hot dogs in a bun and avocado. P.S He ate the hot dogs and gave the bun to the dog. Raisin bread with butter, cheese and cut up cherries.
Just like me, I’m guessing you too spend a lot of time in the supermarket checking labels and trying to remember figures and statistics. It’s horribly depressing and frustrating especially when all you have to worry about is the health of your kid! I wish I could say Georgie eats nothing but fresh produce. No canned stuff. Nothing that contains ingredients I can’t even pronounce. But I would be lying – shamelessly hang of head. He loves these caramel waffle biscuits- organic, naturally- and a lollipop – a nail-biter half an hour- every now and then so i would hate to restrict him to just fruit as a snack when he’s on the go.
First, thank God papa convinced me to get an iPhone. I am on fire on Instagram – even if it is only for my 15 followers. Boohoo- and having so much fun documenting Georgie’s life even MORE! Over the past three days we’ve done more shopping than will ever be admitted, gawked over these super cool mini ducks, ate a delicious homemade organic beef bolognese, cottage cheese with canned pineapples- which are not as bad as I thought- and messed around with our jumbo pot of chalk. Aside from the chalk breaking into a gazillion pieces, I can’t really complain. Having great music in the background helped take off the edge. oh and we also took our new pink pram for a walk……..
