I first of all I took a trip to Sprouts for some organic veggies and came home with a bag of frozen green beans. I opted for frozen because everything I read says that they are just as good or better because they are "flash frozen" at the peak of freshness! Plus its a whole heck of alot easier to open a bag and dump rather than wash, snap, yada yada yada!
I was armed with my 2 new favorite baby food making tools- a magic bullet (thanks Mom!) and my baby food cookbook (thanks Sari!)
I froze most of the food but saved back a little for the big taste test! (Warning- this video is super long!)
I don't think she was too thrilled. Her face says alot- an initial excitement about eating, an overall let down about the taste, a sort of confusion about why she is still eating, then a new fascination for the spoon and complete lack of interest in the green beans. I think she kept eating just so she could grab the spoon. It was the first time she actually stopped eating on her own! Oh well, I have read that a baby might turn away a food 15-20 times before developing a like or dislike to it, so we will keep on trying!
Update...
Hey, it's a new day today and I loved my green beans!

way to go brinley! how exciting! and that video was not too long at all, we could have watched a whole 30 minute episode of just her eating, she was so cute and sweet! bekah and i watched it during breakfast today and she was captivated by how nice and sweet brinley was about a veggie that took bekah 2 months to like! it was funny because when brinley started grabbng the spoon, so did bekah, and she hasn't done that in a long time!
