yeah luckyone. that's what i do too! cook and freeze. very convenient! and each ice cube tray comes in a fixed small quantity, so i will always know how much food bb is eating without having to measure. but my ice cube trays no cover, so i use cling wrap instead. in any case, there isn't anything in my freezer except packs of FBM and ice cream, so sometimes i don't bother to cover. will transfer them out as soon as they are frozen.
my mother does complain about me freezing the food as she insists that fresh food is better. i know fresh food better, but it's quite tough to have to wake up earli in the morning to make like that small volume of puree to bring to bbsitter. she understands, so usu we only do fresh puree on weekends. of course i will make more and freeze the rest for the week.
for making cereal, i use the scoops from the FM tin. Have collected a lot of them. so if i make like 30ml of cereal (about 2 scoops for me), add water to desired consistency (i don't follow the instructions) and stir.
then add 1 cube of whatever defrost puree. my ice cube tray makes about 30ml/cube. so Chloe would have eaten about 60ml of stuff if she finishes all. hehe.
othertimes when i just feed like feeding puree, i will just defrost 2 cubes for her.
i use the pigeon food warmer to defrost the puree. just dump the cubes into the bowl provided, and on to highest settings to heat up the water fast and adjust to 70C when the water boils.
on not lazy days, i will make the cereal in her feeding bowl and pour the puree in. on lazy days, i will put the cereal mix direct into the puree and add water. hahahaha... less thing to wash is always good for me!
