Flying High
Wow. Nutritionists keep saying that eating white rice is metabolicaly about the same as eating sugar. I believe it now.
We had been feeding Awen different fruits and vegetables when I thought to give her some grains. Let's give her some congee. Let me tell you, with a little chicken broth (homemade... no salt, no anything, just skinless chicken and water) mixed in, it tastes a lot better than infant rice cereal. She loved it! She ate everything I gave her!
Well, bedtime is about half an hour after dinner. We did everything as usual, but rather than falling asleep, she kept wriggling and flailing about. Oh no, I thought, she's overtired. Then I looked again. This was not the frustrated flailing of an overtired baby. This was "ohmygoshIhavesomuchenegyijusthavetomovemoreandmoreandfasterandfasterandfasterandwhi pmyarmsaroundandkickkickkick" K. and I couldn't help laughing. What else could we do? So we watched her go crazy for about half an hour. I swear, it was the most hilarious and cute scenario I have ever witnessed. :)
And then...... crash! Restless sleeing all night long. No more congee for awhile. At least not on its own.
Millions of babes including have been fed with congee - it's quite safe. Canned baby foods are full of preservatives. C'mon...I don't agree with your observation.
