Thanks Shoshana, I enjoyed your article. I personally don’t think making baby food needs to be such a project. I served what we were eating or pulled frozen peas out of the freezer. I mashed food for about two days before going to finger foods with my youngest.

I agree with your post completely. I recently wrote an article about homemade baby food http://www.jewishpress.com/pageroute.do/37719

Not much time to comment today, it’s close to Shabbat- but I really enjoyed this post. I also use canola oil, I use matza ball mix (they come out nice and fluffy, though I’ve often thought about just making them from scratch) and my husband loves edamame. I’ve tried it and it’s not bad.

Definitely…I separate the eggs always. But if you like them hard, enjoy what you’ve got.

RivkA, at a time like this (and at all times) your emotional and physical health has to take priority. Maybe soon Y will be ready to take it over on her own. Just make sure they don’t leave a mess!
SS, my matza balls aren’t fluffy, they’re hard. And I like them that way. Maybe it’s because I don’t separate eggs?

My matza balls are very fluffy and have nothing in them but separated eggs, matzo meal and sometimes salt (if i’m letting them simmer in the soup pot, i don’t even add the salt). They’re even fluffier than the mix – as long as i don’t spill too much matzo meal in…
