some fun food tips

for those out there who deal with food allergies or share the concerns about keeping our kids healthy ...

jessica seinfeld was on oprah talking about her new book, "deceptively delicious." i'm interested in checking it out. she gives recipes for everything from spaghetti and meatballs to chocolate cake ... but all the recipes include pureed veggies, so you sneak them in to get your kids to eat more veggies. emma is actually a good eater, but i wouldn't mind trying to sneak some more veggies in!

i also caught the last few minutes of a show on the food network today called "edible enemies." it focused on food allergies. they talked about a cookbook on there from a woman familiar with food allergies. so i looked her up online and found her cookbook ("the whole foods allergy cookbook" by cybele pascal) and her blog, allergycookbook.blogspot.com/. some great info there, including lots of websites wtih allergy-free foods. i'm excited to check out more of the links and maybe get this book too.
