We always, always said we'd be the kind of mom who makes her own baby food from scratch. But then reality set in. So thank goodness for British import Ella's Kitchen, debuting stateside this fall. Their baby food is pure organic goodness containing nothin' but what's in the name: sweet potato, apple, pumpkin, blueberry. There are six combos to choose from, and the handy pouch packaging is a snap for moms on the go. $1 to $2,
Babies R Us.
