Avocado and pear puree


This is not baby's first puree and I read that we better not mix 2 fruits together when we first start solid food.  

So far, baby has tried single food, avocado, pear, sweet potato, pumpkin and potato puree.  I don't dare to try banana and apple because it falls under the BRAT category that may cause constipation.  Though I just started homemade rice cereal with her.  

I noticed that most of the websites that provide solid food recipes for babies are western, from US mostly.  So the fruits and vegetables that are easily found in their country may not be applicable for us here in Malaysia.  Besides, since these vegetables and fruits are export quality, it's usually more expensive.  What more if we get organic ones.

For this puree, it's very easy to make and it's very delicious.  When it comes to 2 food mix, I would rather mix one not sweet and one sweet so that it's not overly sweet.  And preferably not to give baby too much sweet food, otherwise baby would learn the taste and not accept anything else.

Ingredient: A pear and an avocado

I blended the avocado beforehand and kept in the freezer for future use.  

As for the pear, I steamed it for 5 minutes and pour away the excess water as I don't want the puree to be too watery and then pureed.

Then cool down the pear a bit and then mix with the avocado.  The avocado was first transferred from the freezer to the other side and once it has defrosted, can take out and mix with the pear.  

Once mix, the temperature will be like room temperature because one hot and one cold.

She loves it because the pear brings a sweet taste while the avocado a richer taste though bland.

Review: Grand Lexis vs Lexis Hibiscus at Port Dickson

I have been to both and can honestly tell you that I much preferred Lexis Hibiscus to Grand Lexis.  And here's why. Lexis Hibiscus Pros: 1. Very near to the highway. 2. Located near the beach (although very small area). 3. Food stalls located within walking distance to the hotel. 4. Better services from the staff. 5. Bigger pathway for walkers and cyclist (for those who like to do some walking and cycling). 6. Better view of the sea. 7. Swimming pool is located outside the chalet with sea view (depends where the chalet is facing). 8. Sauna is provided in the chalet. 9. Wide spread of breakfast buffet. Cons: 1. A bit more pricey. 2. Public pool is boring. 3. No kitchenette. 4. If it rains, the sound on the roof is very loud because of the material of the roof (sounds like zinc roof). 5. Toilet door is without lock.   Grand Lexis Pros: 1. Nice public pool with slides for the kids. 2. Big swimming pool inside each room. 3. W...

The Big Kindy Search Continues

Since my last The Big Kindy Search post , I have been looking around for kindies and been visiting some.  Here's my feel about them all. 1) Tadika Diyana Read good reviews about this and decided to check them out, though out of our way and far from home.  I love how the price is quite ok but still a bit on the high side (you can check it out at their website). I visited the premise and I really love how it is run like a mini primary school.  It's huge, with its own hall, field and canteen, although downsize version and it's just like a school.  Not like a bungalow with rooms as classroom.   However, I have decided not to send my girl because they will be moving to Sungai Penchala (further up from TTDI, near to the Penchala Link), which will be much further from our home.  Though they do have transporters, but I feel very wary about sending my 4 year old (next year) to a transporter. What I like about Tadika Diyana is they have 2 medi...

PPUM Pediatrics Emergency Department

Being a mom proves to be the hardest job in the world.  Accidents do happen but when they actually happened, most people will panic and unsure what to do.  And when it involves kids, and being the mother of the only child, with no prior emergency experience, this is a traumatizing and frightening episode and a lesson for me to learn. My 3.5 years old girl was being very curious and naughty that fateful day.  She stood on the chair and play with my massage oil and containers and broke one of the small glass cups and when she panicked she came down from the chair and stepped on the broken glass. She was bleeding a lot and crying.  Since this happened at about 10.30pm, my first response was to drive her to a 24-hour clinic.  So, we went to the 24-hour Mediviron clinic but was turned away by the nurses, stating that her case is very serious and need to be referred to a hospital instead. My mind at that time was running at full speed.  I wasn't sure...
