6 months - homemade food for baby

just finished making a batch of sweet potato purée for baby from 4 sweet potatoes ... enough to last her for a week. it wasn't too hard once i got the hang of it. i learnt the hard way that small sweet potatoes don't bake well and that one needs to add quite a bit of water to the sweet potatoes before the purée is of the right consistency - not too sticky and globby. also had to ingeniously pipe the purée into the glass jars as the jar openings were too small to spoon in the purée ....
4 of the jars are going into the fridge for baby's feeds over the next two days and the remaining 9 are in the freezer. i feel so accomplished.
hopefully she likes it after a week plus of rice mush mixed with milk!
