An Education: Spinach

My mom has been making me some amazing first tastes of solid foods. Last week we tried out what my mom and dad call Sweet Potato π. (I know, they are such geeks.) It was so delicious. If there are any other cool babies out there who are interested, here's the recipe.


Sweet Potato π
1 1/2 sweet potatoes (approx.)
1 ripe banana (med.)
1/4 tsp. cinnamon
Directions: Steam sweet potato until tender. Combine sweet potato, banana, and cinnamon in food processor, adding cooking water as needed, until it reaches the consistency your bebe will eat.


Today they tried to feed me this new taste called Spee-Natch. At first I thought it was ok, but after a few bites I changed my mind.

Food! . . .                                                             . . . Wait. 
 

What IS that?. . .                       . . . Am I eating a goat pasture?
     
GROSS!

I don't think anything could make my mom and dad smile as much as my spinach theatrics. (Mom loves these pictures so much that she doesn't even care that there's unfolded laundry in the background.) Even so, I guess I'll try the leafy greens again tomorrow night, because I know that will make them pretty happy too.
