Eating Softly

Julian had the first of a series of oral surgeries yesterday. He’s doing amazingly well after a seven-hour procedure. For the next two weeks he’ll be on a liquid diet, followed by a soft diet. The latter means he can only have items that can be cut with a fork.  Our blender and food processor will be getting workouts. There’ll be a lot of soups and smoothies in his future. Tonight’s dinner will be vichyssoise (cold leek and potato soup), tomorrow’s gazpacho.  I may do some root vegetable purées for him when I have roasted veggies.

One advantage to the liquid diet is that anything that’s liquid at room temperature qualifies. That means ice cream.
