Oh no Ali, hope he comes right soon!
I think sour cream would be fine, Katy - it's just dairy, right? Go the spag bol, Steph!
F seems to enjoy the novelty of sorbet iceblocks, but sometimes after a few minutes she obviously just thinks they're too cold for her to eat as quickly as she wants! So I put some in a bowl, leave it to soften and let her go at it with the spoon too. Just over the past week or two she's really been mastering the spoon actually, and she often requests one if I haven't put one out for her. ('poon. poon'

She doesn't make much mess with it at all most of the time.
Rachel: I always do cucumber in sticks. She scrapes out the middle and only rarely bites a piece of (and never did before she had teeth). I also make rissoles for F just as I would for us but with no salt - so minced meat of choice with finely chopped onion, garlic, herbs, a dab of tomato paste, any finely chopped or grated veg you want to add, breadcrumbs or oats and an egg to bind it all. Sorry if that's not much help, I never do it quite the same way twice so don't have a recipe!
