Dudes and lady-dudes, Babaloo DESTROYED this whole tray of food last night. I was shocked—I’d really thought Dada was over-serving her when he set the tray on the table. We’ve offered chicken a number of times, but this was the first time that she really ate a good bit of it, shredding and gnawing with those two teeth of hers. Add refried beans, mustard rice, slices of avocado (those large ones at Central Market are especially good right now) and a sautéed summer squash dish, and baby was happy!

This was her first time trying squash, and she took a bit to warm up to it. Eventually, she ate about half. The beans she ate by hand, though she was also happy to take pre-loaded spoons when she discovered those offered more bean per bite.

And best of all, no gagging! Phew.
