OXO Good Grips Potato Ricer

We’re not on any sort of low carb diet around here. In fact, we love our carbs, especially taters. One of our favorite ways to prepare potatoes is sour cream and garlic mashers. Our secret ingredient is… cream cheese. That’s right. Plus lots of roasted garlic.

This Potato Ricer would make quick work of a huge pile of potatoes and quick is the name of the game around here with these two growing food hoovers that I live with. Also hear stories that people use potato ricers to make their own baby food, but I haven’t done this myself, since my babies have teeth and chew things. Constructed of stainless steel for durability, this potato ricer fits nicely over pots and bowls and has soft squishy handles to protect your hands. Dishwasher safe. You know I like that!

Beaba Babycook: Healthy Baby Food

It’s just a little concerning to me, the name of this product: Beaba Babycook. You bake cake in a cake pan and steam veggies in a veggie steamer. What do you suppose you do with this gadget? At first glance, I’m thinking Fat Bastard is gonna get some of the other, other white meat.

BUT! That’s not it. This is for preparing food for babies.

If you have a baby, you will love this. This compact appliance is a steamer, blender, warmer and defroster and is used to prepare fresh, healthy meals for baby. Makes baby food in less than 15 minutes, preserving the vitamins and flavors of your handpicked ingredients. Includes 2 1/2-cup plastic bowl, cooking basket, spatula and recipe booklet.

If only they would have had these options when my kids were small, I’d have won an award for Mother of the Year, instead of supported some large conglomerate by purchasing massive quantities of baby food for the growing monsters. No award on my wall, even my virtual wall. Damn.

This cookbook is available for PRE-ORDER ONLY right now, released on February 3, 2009….can’t even sneak a peak inside yet. BUT. Word on the street is – this cookbook has a chapter dedicated to each specific age group, so you can make the foods that are appropriate for your sweet pea. And, as your pumpkin grows, you simply move on to the next chapter -it’s perfectly tailored to the needs of your growing child. 80 recipes with beautiful photos. Of food, I think, not of babies, but since I can’t peek, I can’t be sure.
