Start a baby food swapping co-op

With our rookie babies, we made lots and lots of good fresh pureed baby food. Inspired by Super Baby Food I started with simple blended pear and eased into whipped avocado, but eventually I had vats of different combos going and I would puree for my mini-eater and save the chunky stuff for older Julian.

I had energy and creativity and time. The good news about all that is by freezing my energy, creativity, and time into little frozen food cubes, I could ~~leverage~~ thaw them later when I didn’t.

Carolyn at NYC Moms Blog went one giant step further and organized her own baby food coop. Brilliant. Because as long as your steaming and smashing a head of broccoli, why not make enough for the neighborhood and be done with it?!
