Finally some good news and a great recipe!

For all of those wondering about my little grandson Zach they were to take out his tubes today..his blood gases were up..because he had been upset and cried..they postponed that until tomorrow but still took out his stitches. Those healed so fast. This little guy may have a little temper but he also has been thru a lot and can you imagine how uncomfortable he must be now that they are toning down his medications? Please all keep up the good thoughts and here's a special recipe just for Zach and other little ones that might like a little sweet for their first meal. Hope I am there cause I would love to make all his food like I did for my daughter some 30 years ago.
The recipe is for my daughter's favorite sweet potatoes.when you're cooking for an infant all that's necessary is to find the best possible vegetable like sweet potatoes for instance.put them in the oven and roast until soft and easily pierced with a fork.I roast them in the jackets in a 350 degree oven.next slice the skin down the center and put the pulp into your food processor or mash by hand but very well.I use the processor always! To keep this simple wholesome no additives meal in perfect condition place them briefly in a metal/ aluminum ice cube tray until they harden and then place them in a freezer proof ziplock bag. Just microwave to room temperature..do 20 seconds, 20 seconds until they feel just warm to the touch. Really an easy recipe but think how much better it is for your baby plus think of all the money you will save.and then when they go on more regular food you could still freeze toddle size portions and chop just a little in processor.
Next time a really great French recipe I learned recently in Lyon and also a simplified version of French onion soup I made up the other day.recently I have even made up pastry cake recipes and pie crust and pies.so much baking for the dr's and nurses has so increased the number of recipes I am making lately!
