I asked about what they spray their fruits with for pest control. On Monday, I called Robert Is Here and had a fantastic chat with the owners son. He didn’t find You-Pick-It places but he did find a link to local tropical fruit growers in Florida. Darrel remembered the back-burnered picking banana idea, and went online to see if he could find any such places. I was making Jed pancakes for breakfast, and since he is egg-free, I was using mashed banana in the batter. Then we got distracted with finding safe pork, researching other foods, and sort of back-burnered that idea. If it worked, I could keep getting layovers and go back for more, or we could call our friends down in Fort Lauderdale and beg them to go mercy-banana-picking for us.

What if there were organic You-Pick-It BANANA growers in Florida that DIDN’T use sprays? What if I could rent a car on a layover and go pick up some bananas fresh from the trees with NO SPRAYS to trial on Zac? There are “You-Pick-It” Farms in every state, right? Then I had an idea…I’m a Flight Attendant, right? I travel all over the country. So being told bananas would be an almost certain unsafe food was very disheartening for us. We LOVE bananas in our household we could all eat bananas all day, every day here.
I know I’ve mentioned about how the corn-allergic people all said that tropical fruits like bananas and avocados are off-limits because of the ethylene sprays used to ripen them. As long as he continues to behave this way when I’m home, the increased goat milk when I’m gone won’t worry me very much at all. So it seems that he was simply expressing a preference for “from the tap” breast milk, and we’ll have to get creative on ways to make sure he consumes more when I’m gone next time. He whined for a minute, then climbed into my lap and pulled on my shirt again.
He immediately nursed for 20 minutes, and an hour later came running up to me making the sign for ‘milk’ with both hands!Īt dinner we gave him a bowl of goat milk ice cream, but when he finished the bowl and asked for more I told him no. (Strangely enough, I miss The Fresh Beat Band on Netflix…)īefore I begin today’s post I want to share that I’m home, and my fears about too-soon weaning are fading into the ether.Īs soon as Zac saw me, he started pulling at my shirt for boobie.
