Making your own baby food-the contest

I am counting the days until my youngest who is now three months old can start eating solids. I look forward to him sleeping longer at night and also reaching that cute 6 months phase of his life. Mostly I am excited because I will be able to make baby food again. Charlotte loved the baby food I made and it was so easy to make. I played around with various recipes and found a combination that was both delicious (she loved sweet baby food) and nutritious too!
 NUK-USA had a contest for baby food recipes on Facebook, so I entered Charlotte's favorite recipe. Thinking nothing would come of it, I was pleasantly surprised to see an email informing me that I am a semifinalist for the contest. NUK sent me a $50 gift card to Whole Foods and next month the fan favorite will win a $1,000 gift card to Whole Foods. My recipe will be one of the six recipes fans vote on! It would be super cool to win, but if I am completely honest with myself, I am just happy to be a semifinalist! I have never really won anything in my life, so this is totally awesome for me.
So, the moral of the story is, you never know what could come from entering a contest on a whim. You may win something neat! Plus, if it is something you really enjoy doing, that is definitely a plus.
