Introducing solids to a baby is messy and gross and often frustrating. One day they love it and they can’t get enough then the next day, they decide it’s horse turd and it lands all over your living room floor. The feeding ain’t fun, the food slinging ain’t fun and the cleaning up after sure as hell is not my idea of fun.
So what makes a mom keep up the ordeal? Pretty little food cubes that are so fun to make.
It’s like therapy for me, steaming and mashing and blending all the colors of the rainbow to make stuff that may just turn out to be a hit with my kid. And when it’s thrown up everywhere, at least I had fun making it.
