I gave my DD exactly what we were having, with the exception of honey and nuts. She took about a month to be interested and it was literally like one day she suddenly started eating everything she could get her hands on! I did spoon feed her yoghurt (not really something you can use your fingers for...), but I would give her a spoon herself. There were a few other spoon things, but I don't remember them off the top of my head. DD could competently use a spoon herself well before she was one (very motivated to get that food in her mouth!).
The idea of BLS is they eat family foods and there's no extra preparation or fuss. Baby has the ability to choose what they eat, how much they eat and when they've had enough. But there's nothing to say you need to do exactly x, y and z if you've found something that works for your baby!
