Cool New Baby Gift

A few of my girlfriends have become baby machines and all these little ones are popping up in the last 2 years. Many of my friends were never health nuts to begin with but after they have a baby they get so concerned about giving the baby anything food that is not natural/organic. One friend was never a good cook but when baby No.1 came, she learned how to make home made baby food. It seemed like so much work to make home made baby food and you always end up making so much cause you can not puree one cup of food in your blender. So someone in Europe has made a cool little contraption that steams,puree, warm up and defrost your baby food.

It is called the Babycook made by Beaba. So all you have to do is add water, put your veggies in basket. Place the basket in the blending/steaming cup and turn the machine to steam. Once the light is off, take the special spatula to take out the basket and pour the veggies into the blending cup. Turn the machine to blend and voila...you have home made baby food in 15 minutes. You can make up to 2 1/2 cups of food which is plenty for a baby.


I have not been able to find a place in Edmonton that sells it but it is available in Calgary at Williams-Sonoma (Chinook Mall) for $149. So if you have friends that will be adding another one to the family, think about driving down to Calgary for a present that they will use many times.
