It surprised me at how super easy it is to make the food. The baby food jars are about $.80- $1.00 which you can get 1-2 servings out of. I was able to buy a bag of carrots for less than $2.00. I used half the bag and now have at least 10 servings of carrots. All you have to do is steam them and puree them. I now have a freezer stocked up with green beans, carrots, peas and sweet potatoes (which are really Yams, but that's another topic for another day). I am pretty sure this is the first step into making my own clothes, braiding my hair, wearing prairie dresses and getting rid of all electricity in my home. Hopefully this will not happen, but if this is my last blog you know that I have gone over the top and will need an intervention.

Granola Mommy 101
I say this knowing a lot of my friends will be greatly disappointed, but I have never really considered myself a "Granola Mommy" nor a person who is a Greenpeace member & recycles everything. I love the convenience of disposable diapers, wipes and I have even used the disposable bibs on occasion. The thought of cloth diapers actually makes me gag a little. I rarely buy the organic foods unless they are on sell, but I decided to make my own baby food for Sticks. I started reading an awesome website www.WholesomeBabyFood.com. It surprised me at how super easy it is to make the food. The baby food jars are about $.80- $1.00 which you can get 1-2 servings out of. I was able to buy a bag of carrots for less than $2.00. I used half the bag and now have at least 10 servings of carrots. All you have to do is steam them and puree them.
