Make it on the weekend, and you're set for 7 days! This book introduces weekend stock preparation and 7-day menu plans, broken down by stages like the "gokkun" (swallowing) stage and the "mogu-mogu" (chewing) stage. You can also "see" how to advance baby food, along with guidelines for portion sizes, ingredient sizes, and firmness. I bought it with enthusiasm, but I missed the opportunity to actually use it, and it's been stored on the bookshelf ever since.
