The Foraging Mama

To ensure one gets their full servings of fruits and veggies every day, remember to always lick the lid!

Sure, you could create this delicious soup using the recipe provided by the Food Network... or you could just knock back this jar of Pear Zucchini Corn blend from Gerber. Want to impress the in-laws? Simply dump several containers of this into a pot, warm, and serve with a little nutmeg on top. Bam. Leave a print-out of the Food Network recipe on the kitchen counter for the finishing touch.

Currently, the record for Longest Time A Full Mug Of Coffee Has Sat Untouched in our home is held by yours truly who recently discovered a forgotten mug in her bathroom, left during an attempt to escape the kids and shower the day before. The mug photographed here is still relatively fresh as it is still tepid. Mmmm, who doesn't love a good tepid coffee?

When presented with leftover "banana orange medley" baby food and the remains of a "just butter no syrup that's the only way I'll eat it" waffle, simply drizzle baby food onto waffle and enjoy! The perfect grab-and-go meal before rushing out the door for church!

Leftover rice rusk: serve with coffee (once it's been sitting untouched long enough that it's cold, of course.)

If she doesn't finish that, I will. Those things are the bomb.

Confession: I just finished my 7-month-old's half eaten jar of turkey and rice cause I was hungry and haven't had a chance to stop and eat lunch today. And I liked it. Help.
