Almond Syrup

Almond Syrup

I put raw almond in water and in the fridge for a couple of days. Peel 5 or 6 of them, grind them, put them in a neat and tender piece of cloth and soak it in a glass half full with hot water. I put the glass inside a kettle of boiling water.

There, after several minutes, I have almond syrup.

I add 10 ml of almond syrup to a mixture of cereal (usually 20 ml) and fresh fruit juice (usually 15 ml of grapes or apple juice) , and give it to you.

Apple Puree

Apple Puree

For the first time I gave you apple puree today.

I peeled a granny smith apple, cut almost 1/5 of it it in very small pieces and boiled it in boiling water until it got pretty soft. I smashed it to make it as smooth as possible, mixed it with oat cereal, then added a little bit of fresh natural grape juice to make it sweet, then gave it to you.

You liked it.

Heinz banana puree didn’t agree with you

Heinz banana puree didn’t agree with you

You had a difficult couple of days. Well, you are extremely sweet, so, even with an uneasy stomach you managed to be lovable, curious and extremely cute. Yet you couldn’t eat or sleep easily for a couple of days.

I stopped giving the Heinz banana puree to you for a couple of days. You pooped three times, it got out of your system and as of this morning you were back to normal again.
