Both Euan and I just love the Summer weather! We still go for picnics and for walks in the gardens sheltering under the trees and looking out for birds (and planes!) as Euan enjoys looking at them.

Last Sunday we tried something new, we went cycling on the Thames path. We have been cycling before but on shorter routes. We got a child seat for Euan which is attached to the bicycle - to Steve's bicycle actually. I mean, we can attach it to mine as well but then it's more hard work for me - so I leave the hard work for the boys (man, really) :)

Anyway, last weekend we tried out some of the HiPP organic products we received. They're great to take along for picnics or when you're going out for the day. Saturday we tried the HiPP Organic Beef and Bean Cassoulet. It consists mainly of chopped organic vegetables and organic beef. Euan enjoyed it - he's a meat lover and he likes a bit of texture in his food. It tasted of home-made Cassoulet. It's perfect when going out. I tend to prefer the plastic bowls rather than the glass jar and they also re-usable! 

We also tried the HiPP Organic Cheesy Leek & Chicken Macaroni. This is macaroni with sauce. This is not one of Euan's favourites. It tastes more of vegetables and not much of chicken and cheese and the sauce didn't have much texture to it. 

This week Euan and I went for an afternoon picnic and with us we took a jar of HiPP Organic Pancakes with Apple Sauce. It's great for an afternoon snack or as dessert. The jar is not small (200g) and it was plenty for Euan as a snack so we saved the rest for a dessert after dinner. This tastes real nice! It is maybe a little bit on the sweet side (with added sugar) but Euan just loved it. And I couldn't keep myself from tasting it and tasting it again!!
