JJmom,
2 scallop seems alot. I add 1 scallop for his 2 meal porridge. I don add on every meal, only when it's like too bland esp only chicken stock.
I change ikan bilis stock, pork ribs and chicken stock daily.
elch,
Me too.. I just modify to a v simple recipe.. keke..

Busybee:
Is Miki thirsty due to fever and not really hungry for milk? Hmm... my logic is no matter how nutritious the food, if the baby doesn't eat because it's too bland he doesn't even get the nutrients. So I think some flavouring is ok, as long as not over the limit. Ikan bilis if washed and soaked before cooking shdnt be too saltish.
Thanks I'll get the voucher from u then. PM you my add later. I pay u for postage?

ya.. I think scallop from Indo is better but hard to find.. I think the scallop is not really salted, as V's porridge not v salty leh..
My ikan bilis all from Indo. I buy from market there, it's not v salty to me.. so i nv soak just wash.. keke..
Nat's nanny is from which part?? Batam?? My MIL also like to buy ikan bilis from Indo.. so i guess it's good coz she' v particular abt food.

Thanks all, yeah i do hope minibee gets well soon. I'm so exhausted that it triggered a migraine. I really forgot the feeling of the early months when they were on 3 hourly feeds. I'm feeling so nua i told hubby she will be having 1 dish meals for the few days and he would need to ride the mrt home himself! Hahaha
Jelly, I do give her table food occasionally too and am currently using the sea salt or dried scallop for the flavouring ( but i put in that wee bit only). In fact i was gungho enough to buy her a happy meal, she was happily chomping down the cheeseburger. Agree some salt is better vs poor nutrition.
Tweety, voucher no longer applicable cos u have attended a trial before. Its more for new comers.
Wan Cheun, saw ur email. Will send u the voucher. I think u might be right, she might have been thirsty and i so terrible overfed her.
Elch, I think i will try out some. The recent apple butter recipe sounds heavenly with pancakes.

Tweety, yeah, as long as u have attended a class at jg (regardless of which branch) the voucher is not valid. Abt maid, yeah i have one. But I cook or supervise her. She has only been with us for 3 months and only learnt to cook abt 10 to 15 dishes. So when we feel like eating something diff I will personally cook.
Dried scallops, yeah was told the jap ones are better. I prefer to get the bigger ones too. Bot from EYS recently.

karen,
are you talking about the one where the mummy posted that she found worms in the HT cereal? I read that. That mummy is so dodgy dunno what she's trying to get out of this matter. I mean HT already offered her so many options as compensation but yet she's still kicking up a fuss. Tsk tsk!
tweety,
no wonder varner enjoyed the class. Safina is good.
wan chuen, tweety,
yes i still have the coupon. Pass to either one of you.

I tried switching Ian to organic whole milk after I stopped pumping at 14 months but he got rashes so he just drinks toddler formula now. We'll try organic whole milk again when he turns 2. My older son drank organic whole milk after I stopped pumping at 12 months. It was very easy switching him but his little brother has sensitive skin.
Do they sell Better than Bouillon Organic chicken stock in Singapore? I use that for Ian's porridge and our soup and it's really yummy. I used to make my own chicken stock with chicken and caramelized carrots and celery but haven't done that in a while because of not having enough time.
Springles - Ian loves the Hugga Bear biscuits.
I'm very annoyed with Ian. He managed to break his new Melissa and Doug piano yesterday. He's also been whining non-stop since he turned 18 months. I miss my old sweet easy-going baby.

phtanus,
The instruction for pediasure is to use cold water. My friend told me its because of the probiotic inside.
little doggie,
Think my boy doesnt never realise he is hungry before. I even have to spoonfeed him his morning milk. His total milk intake is very low. I poked another hole in his teat, he drinks a bit faster, but still doesnt finish his milk.
stock
If i am using stock, then I will not use scallop. I boil the pork bone and add a bit of vinegar after that. This is to leach calcium from the soup bone. And I freeze the stock. Sometimes I cook soup for family meal, then I will use the stock for his porridge. So can be beef/chicken/pork, with carrots, celery onions etc.

Thanks, I'll get the voucher from busybee since she got my addy. Safina is good har? Can request to trial her class?
Busybee:
Thanks, no hurry regarding the voucher, I haven't called JG yet haha.
Don't blame yourself lah, if minibee is too full I don't think she would drink up all the milk. Anyway hope she recovers soon. U also must take care.

Regarding stock:
JTS, usually I will do the simplest method which is to make Veggie stock...;p
I will use sweetcorns(Buy those big fat one, which are sweeter and more ex one), carrots, tomatoes and sometimes onions.
For added flavour, I will put in some red dates or organic veggie/chix stock cube.
Will let it boil/cook in slow cooker for bout 2hrs or so and the stock will be very tasty le.
Upon cooling, I will store the stock and freeze it for Kaelyn's meals.
Aft which I dun waste the corns as it's still sweet and fragrant, will blend it up and freeze to be use for Kaelyn's meals oso.
Personally I find this veggie stock quite simple and easy yet tasty.
Unless I got cook soup for our own meals, then I will save some stock to be use for her next day's porridge..

Morning mummies!!
R&R,
your stock sounds yummy to me.. I shall try your combination. Did you did it fresh or frozen?? btw, what is shallot?? I do add in wolfberries and red date to the stock at times..
JJmom,
I taste the ikan bilis last night. Not v salty to me. I think wash twice should be able to wash off the salt. I checked with my mum last night, she said she bought at around $11 per kg. If you wan, let me know I can spare u half kg to try??
Mint,
did you start the JG program by the term or join half way?? I feel like join from beginning is better??
GUG:
Anyone been there before??
Nicky,
U use stock cubes from market?? Those like maggie??
