in the kitchen—Pizza and white beans

A couple of pictures here from last week’s successful first-time attempts in the kitchen! Pizza and beans! I’ve always wanted to make my own pizza and I am very proud to say it was almost 100 per cent organic too. Apart from the dough and cheddar cheese, every single ingredient from the broccoli to the tomatoes were pesticide-free and also LOVED by Georgie. The beans weren’t a winner to begin with but mashed into a creamy potato mash was a different story. Also my little dude has newfound love for liver! It is considered a superfood and VERY nutritional, in case you didn’t know, so I was thrilled when Georgie gobbled it down.

in the kitchen—Picnic ready

Saturday late mornings are usually spent with Georgie’s cousins at TGIF, perhaps the most kid-friendly diner I know. However this Saturday, we went back to basics and snacked on fruit, cheese and bread at the Athalassa Park. I literally threw in a bag whatever I could find in the kitchen that would be picnic-suitable. It was a lovely change and one that we will definitely be doing more of. And thankfully, Georgie rediscovered his love for blueberries.

on the menu today…

    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…

learning about food

    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.

snacks

     When Georgie started eating healthier snacks, I felt a huge weight was lifted. I have always tried to give him the best, which, to me, means homemade and organic. Yet some days I feel all he’s eaten is biscuits, cornflakes and bread. But when I started taking pictures of products I use on a daily basis, I gave myself a pat on the back. Here are a couple taken through Instagram.     Berry yoghurt.   He absolutely loves tomatoes and cheese.      My little dude tried some hummus for the first time and just wouldn’t stop. I’m not a huge fan hence begin so late introducing him to it.     At least he’s eating, I tell myself…x
