I'm sitting here with left-over baby oatmeal on my face...

intentionally.  Yes, I think I've finally lost it.  It hit me as I looked at DS3's leftover baby oatmeal (with a bit of banana) thrown in that it would make a lovely face mask.  So I steamed my face a bit and then slathered it on.

It actually feels quite nice.

Other weird things I've done with baby food....

Thrown in a jar into a smoothie, mac n cheese, or meatloaf (for the family, not babies)

Used baby oatmeal as oat flour to make muffins, bread, and even as a sub for bread crumbs

Am I the only weird one out there?

Maybe if I do a baby food oatmeal facial every day with the left-overs, I'll have fabulous skin by summer!  :D

Baby oatmeal makes a great oatmeal bath.  It's just the right consistency to completely dissolve in to the water.  My first hated that stuff so when I was left with the rest of the box, I decided to try it in the bath to clear up her eczema.  Worked great!

Oh that's a great idea.  DS1 has eczema, so I'll definitely try it!

We're on WIC and get a stupid amount of baby food, but we BLW, so I use it in sauces, or baking, I also make smoothies and frozen treats for my three year old with it.
