I think my main top tip is ‘Try It Out’ - you really don’t know if your baby will like a food unless you try them. Today, for example, baby Boomer loved some crayfish tails with pretty spicy sauce. Grandmaw was quite surprised especially as she drank quite a lot of water after her spicy crayfish salad.

Other surprising things Boomer has tried and liked are ;

Lovely juicy organic mint and lamb burger (eaten outdoors at a food fair)  – admittedly I held this while she sucked at a bit but she was peeved when I removed it.

Very, very, very mature cheese – this stuff was strong, the kind of stuff that even the smell makes you wince

Bit of Naan dipped in curry sauce – admittedly quite a creamy sauce , and before you shriek in horror it was only a tiny bit so she could join in with the social side of Mummy and Daddy’s Friday night take away binge.

Please don't judge me harshly , these represent only a small section of our diet, there is plenty of fruit and veg in a normal day - honest.
