A health freak mom's thoughts on health and all things healthy
My mil bought some organic baby capsicums last week. It was the first time I’d seen such tiny and cute capsicums and I could not resist biting on one of the baby capsicums… in its raw form. I remembered Chris (one of the commentators of my blogs) telling me that her son would eat raw…
I bought a huge bunch of watercress veggie the other day to make watercress soup and for my mil to make dumplings (kau cee). Since there was also an apple that has been sitting in the fridge for quite some time, I toss in the apple as well as the watercress into the crockpot of…
We were at the organic shop for an organic lunch and also to get some organic food stuff when I came across this brown rice snack. I got a pack which had 6 packets of different flavors for my 3 gals. The brown rice snack, which cost RM10 a pack comes in 6 flavors –…
These days, giving Baby a veggie or a raw carrot stick to munch on will keep her still on her highchair during meal times. Here she is enjoying herself to the max with a lotus root stuffed with mung beans: Here’s the lotus root stuffed with mung beans. My mil made a pot of soup with…
Baby gets bored with a type of food pretty easily, so I have to think of new food for her all the time, loooooong sigh….. She no longer wants her baby biscuits now – she would turn her head when offered a biscuit or she would hammer the biscuit on the table till it…

I was told by Baby C’s surgeon that beet roots are very nourishing and nutrients-packed and he had suggested to me several times feeding baby with beet roots, radishes, peas, spinach and fresh fish. I bought 2 beet roots the other day and grated about 1/4 of it into baby’s porridge. Baby’s colorful and sweet…
I double boiled some beet root + chicken soup for Baby C the other day. She loved the soup to bits. Here’s her colorful dinner: Porridge with purple sweet potato, pumpkin, organic purple cabbage, fish, pork and garlic; beet root soup and E.Excel’s Nutrifresh. Double boiled organic beet root with chicken breast soup. The soup…
This is Baby C’s breakfast today: Freshly squeezed orange juice, Millenium cactus juice with probiotics, organic blueberry yoghurt, hard-boiled egg yolk mashed with avocado, some crushed Pureen baby biscuits and a dollop of unsalted butter. I find that the organic blueberry yoghurt by Lean Food (made in Australia) a tad sour for Baby C’s liking….
Baby C has started to lose interest in her porridge for the past few days. It would be a struggle for me to finish off feeding her the bowl of porridge and it normally takes at least an hour for her to finish her bowl of porridge and her bowl of soup. The easiest way…
