This has been pretty much the first fruit I've used with all four daughters and the littlest one is just now reaching that stage so super-ripe bananas are a commodity for more than just banana bread right now. :) The spotted, brownish (but not black!) bananas mash the easiest, almost to a liquid state, and taste the sweetest to little taste buds. Sometimes I mash them with a little apple juice instead of milk/formula, and they're also good with a bit more liquid and some baby cereal mixed in. Inexpensive and quick to fix, no reading the label for preservatives or stacking messy leftover jars in the fridge ~ perfect!

I'm a full-time student at a University of Wisconsin campus, with a double major in Sociology and History. I have three adorable children, ages 9 yrs, 5 yrs, and our 2 yr old son. My nine yr old is in third grade. My 5 yr old is is in kindergarten. My littlest one is pleasantly plump. ;) We also have 2 cats.
My daughter recently joined recipezaar under the name Miss Bean
I also really like sewing. I make @ 1/3 of my daughters clothes. Reading is also a BIG staple in my life. One of my favorite ways to find a book is to walk into the library, pick a shelf and simply grab a book at random. I've read so many great books I probably wouldn't have found out any other way.
I also like to camp and fish with my DH. He eats, sleeps and breathes fishing. He would like to one day start his own company, he hand ties and sells fishing lures locally. And he loves my cooking and will try anything at least once. ;)
He works as a pressman at a local printing company.
