I was wondering....if I made peas for my daughter (she likes the jar kind) and I didn't use fresh peas but frozen, instead of cooking them, can I just take a good amount out and put into a clean bowl with a lid over night and let them defrost and puree them in my Magic Bullet? Or do I HAVE to cook them? I would think not if they were completely defrosted. And I could always nuke it in the microwave too. What about frozen greenbeans? Or should I stay away from those because of the nitrates? My baby girl is 5 months old yesterday. I just want to do what's right
Answer
It's best to steam veggies for baby food. Always cook them. Veggies are frozen uncooked which is why you can refreeze them once you have made baby food out of them. "Nuking" anything in the microwave destroys any nutritional value so I wouldn't suggest doing that when making baby food. A quick steam retains the most value. Even boiling water will lessen the nutritional content but not to the extent of microwaving. Are you away that you should be introducing a new food each week? This is important because you need to be monitoring her reaction to new foods, in case of anything adverse. Start with yellow veggies (squash, yukon gold potatoes) then to green, then orange. Since she's five months now, I would keep her on the yellow veggies until next month and then move forward with the green and orange.

Answer
Hanns·G HH-241HPB Black 23.6" 5ms HDMI Widescreen LCD Monitor 300 cd/m2 DC 15000:1(1000:1) Built in Speakers - Retail
Pros: Large enough for my needs, no stuck or dead pixels, arrived promptly. Has good color contrast and displays very little if any banding
Cons: Backlight bleed on each corner with a rather large bar of light along the bottom edge. Very distracting on dark scenes, with any LCD you can expect a bit of bleed (except those fancy LED backlights) but this is a bit of above average in my books.
Other Thoughts: Can't complain too much, for a monitor under $170.00 at the time of purchase, there wasn't much to expect.
SAMSUNG 2333HD High Glossy Black 23" 5ms HDMI Widescreen Full HD LCD Monitor 300 cd/m2 DC 10,000:1 (1,000:1) Built in Speakers - Retail
Pros: Crystal clear Hd satellite picture. Beautiful Monitor picture.
HDMI cable included. A great value!
Cons: Stand was awkward to put in. Power plug did not have a secure connection . I called Samsung and they sent me a new plug without a hassle. No problems what so ever since then.
Other Thoughts:
1.This Monitor/TV is 1080P. It has its own tuner...meaning it is an HD TV OR a Monitor. This product is a "steal" at this price.
2.I have a set of Altec Lansing speakers with subwoofer hooked up and the sound is wonderful. This is not a $1000.00 TV.
3.If you expect the same don't buy it. But if you are looking for a Superb picture either as a TV or a monitor and 23" 's is large enough for your needs...BUY IT! I really wanted to give it a 5 but felt it wouldn't be fair since I had to request a new power plug from Samsung.
