Meta Baby is Meta

[kiya]

artan_eter just wandered in with KJ and said, "So, it's kind of meta, but she won't eat food, but she will eat the food processor."

Baby was gnawing on the lid to the Cuisinart.



In other news, there were ducks swimming in my backyard today, I am told.

OK- I kinda like that concept. Meta-eating.

Dyan seems to think that red tastes good. So, y'know, my red jammie pants (while I'm wearing them), the red in my hair, all invite nomming.

KJ seems to like things that are transparent. I was trying to think of clear foods earlier, which led to an odd discussion about Jello.

cellophane noodles. Pre-fried, of course.

now with the simple application of sodium alginate in the substance and a calcium chloride bath, anything that can be liquified can be gelled, so you could make all sorts of transparent/translucent things, and you can shape them to an extent- added to the bath with an eyedropper, you get spheres, with a spoon, ravioli-like things. I've seen that one can pour the liquid on to a cookie sheet, let it solidify and then run it through a pasta-maker, but haven't personally tried that.

And, of course, I've never done this as baby food.
