But I have to have some hot cooked food when we have sub zero temperatures like we do this weekend.
Oh no..I have to worry about the lbs A LOT! I think I have the metabolism of a hermit crab...if they have slow metabolisms. At any rate, something very slow. And aging isn't making it any better. Nor does my love for sweets.
I do agree with the hot food on cold days thing. But we don't get too many COLD days and if I want hot, I eat soup. I love soup.

Hey MsA:
Ever thought of publishing your recipes?
I've known others to do it.
You certainly have plenty of great ideas to fill a book full of delicious goodies.

I seem to have a fuzzy memory of loving that nasty baby food. But not when I was a baby, well, not a real baby, I'm sure I used to eat my sisters baby food. Only the apple flavour one though, that was great.

Ew. I tried it recently. Like really recent as in a few years ago. Our cat was deathly sick so the vet said to give her baby food. So of course I had to try it. It was gross x500. But it was a meat one so maybe thats why.
I would guess apple isn't so bad because maybe it was like apple sauce?

Yeah, due to living in a backwards country I've never had apple sauce (we can fix that when come over, so many things to eat...), but I imagine it's pretty similar. Just a paste, that tastes like apple. Kinda like the filling in apple pie-ish?
A hell of a lot better than mushed up meaty bits I'm certain.

I'm gonna gross Zeek out even more, but I used to like the Turkey baby food. The thought now make me
but I used to like it. Plums are supposedly good. I don't like cooked/mashed/dried/etc fruit, so apple sauce and the like are not my thing...but I hear the plums are good.

The plum isn't bad, but the blueberry was always my fave when my sisters were little.
Navy, try homemade applesauce.. not the storebought stuff.. for your first time.
Speaking of which, MsA...
Mamma Holmes' Baby Food Recipes:
(helpful hint: freeze them in ice cube trays, instant single serving!)
Take one sweet potato or yam. Bake until the sugar starts to seep out of the skin (350F for "a while"). Scoop it out. Mash it up. Start shoveling.
Carrots: scrub well or peel and steam until soft enough to mash with a fork. Make with the smooshy. Serves one, briefly.
Applesauce: See carrots, same basic idea. Skins not an option unless you can blenderize the hell out of it. Gagging baby not fun.
Peas: Fresh peas, steam, smoosh. Nom nom.
Avocado: Take 1 ripe avocado. Fork it. Freeze, or serve fresh.
Let's face it, eventually even mixing in baby cereal doesn't cut it.. they want TEXTURE!
So I give you
Egg and avocado: (for the advanced diner). Make 1 scrambled egg. Take some ripe avocado. Mash and mix. Lay claim to unused avocado, you deserve it.
Also popular variant- egg and applesauce. Same basic principle. Not as tasty in a sandwich for mommy, though.
I never tried him on beets because I don't like them. Neither does Doctroid. We are a beet-free zone.
A warning about blueberries: Do not freak out at the next diaper change.

MSA!!! DO IT!!!
Avery: like the homemade baby food recipes. They probably taste better than jarred (sp?) baby food (I had to eat a jar of baby food once for a science project, we were making ice cream in the jars, but the teacher made us eat the mush first, it was pretty tasteless). Must try them when I eventually have kids :P (or babysit a fairly young baby)
