Papaya

So I am trying to feed Stella with some tips from the Annabel Karmel books. The recipes for older kids have been a success with Sebastian up to now. Yesterday I tried to give papaya to Stella, because it's one of those foods you don't have to cook - you just scoop it out and mash it up, like with bananas and avocados. NOT a hit at all. Actually, I tried it and papaya isn't really my thing either. I ended up mixing it up with some bananas, and then she ate it. She is now eating one meal a day (around lunch) with solids. Her favorites so far are carrots (only when I make them myself) and pears.
Before the papaya.
Looking a bit skeptical.

Does this look like the face of an enthusiastic papaya-eater? I think not.
